i have a help project created with RoboHelp 2017 , HTML Output .. i need to integrate it with my Web App (ASP.NET C#) ,

i checked the manual , and followed the steps ,

Copied RoboHelp_CSH.cs into the Solution,

tried to add a reference for MSXML2.DLL but it wasn't there (i run Windows 10) so i downloaded it off the internet ..

but i'm still getting issues like "using HHCTRLLib;" this library is no where to be found and i even can't find it on the internet

even the RoboHelp_CSH.cs file which the manual instructed to fetch from the RoboHelp installation folder is full of errors and undefined references

please advice ..

I thought you just gave the whole folder of ASP.NET files to the developers & let them figure it out?

I don't think CHM files are appropriate for web applications. You should look at a web format such as Webhelp, or one of the HTML5 outputs. Probably Responsive HTML5 as the most modern version.

Willam's site provides detailed information about context sensitive help, assuming that's what you mean by "integrating":

I suspect the poster has made the simple mistake of taking HTML Help to mean WebHelp rather than a single file CHM which would not run on a server. I have therefore moved this post to the WebHelp forum. The links to it remain unchanged.
