Hi all, I guess I’m not the only one who is annoyed about the current trend to deliver software without any manuals. They said always: “Please use the online- help.” But this not always a proper way to get information. Beside Navision we had got a new banking software last week - without any printware. That was the last reason for me to search the web for ways and tools to convert the helpfiles into printable documents. I found different ways. Now I’m able to convert normal Help- files (.hlp) and Navision HTML- helpfiles (.chm). I found this easy solution on GOOGLE (What would I do without it!). With this posting I would like to share my knowledge in converting chm - files with you. In the Navision help are several books (like Accounting, Sales, Purchase etc.). You can convert always only one of these books. Rightclick on one of these books and select ‘Print’. A box will appear with a question (from german): ‘Only selected document’ or ‘Selected document and all subordinated documents’. Select the second point. Now the system converts all helpfiles to one document to send it to the printer. This is our opportunity. When the printer selection box appears don’t select something. Go to the explorer and browse your TEMP - folder (Y2K: documents and settings/YourProfile/Local …/TEMP). There you will find a file like this: …HH… .htm. . stand for different numbers. Copy this file to another folder, cancel the printer selection, open Word and with this open the copied file. Now you got the helpfile in a Word -document. Thats it. It is so easy if you know how. rev 10.02.2003 --------------- I forgot two points: - negative: All links are dead. No Matter, we want to print the document. - positive: You can easy insert a list of contents. Word formats all headers autmatically (on my system). All you have to do is to select insert / list of contents / Ok. Then you can format the document as you wish. I just tried to convert a chm - file with pictures to Word. It doesn’t work. Then you have to print the …HH… . htm - file (with all pictures [:)] & no chance to format [:(]). If you want to know more about converting .hlp- files to Word please let me know. bye Andre
