I have found a point in my program to write help document. I suspect that the whole thing will be more than 50 lines - and maybe this is half.
About "About Me" I have just one popup display some pre-formatted text, but I also learned that pain with a little too many lines, especially if I want to edit it I am also not eager to create a complete help file created in the code.
One thought was to create a text file loaded in a message box when the help language and "help" are clicked. Left to your equipment, it's probably what I will do. Another recent idea is creating a different form.
But I wonder what have others done in such circumstances?
To see fit.
These help files can then be displayed by one of the standard help viewer applications. Your WinForm application (I'm assuming its WinForms) will be able to hook them with reference sensitive help when you press F1.
I urge you not to re-invent this special wheel.
