going about opening a .chm file from a menu item

got a menu item, its named
ID_HELP
and i need to know the C++ command to open up a CHM file..

i would post the source, but really, i got nothing, even though i tried using the standard way of opening HLP files :p

Code:

---

ShellExecute(NULL, TEXT("open"), TEXT("C:\path to\HelpFile.chm"), NULL, NULL, SW_SHOWNORMAL);

---

thanks, ill give that a try when i get home. :)

Or you could download the HTML help workshop from Microsoft , and call the HTMLHelp() API. In this way you can open topics, etc.. in the file..

i didn't make the CHM file, its the HTML help file from w3C
