contextual help

Anonymous

I have been asked to look in to setting up some sort of contextual help within autocad for when we use our own commands

 

for example if you start to type line within autocad and then press F1 it opens the autocad help menu to the help topic for line

 

What i would like to do is if somone was to start to type MYCOMMAND and then press F1 to open a CHM file to the topic that relates to that command

 

Does anyone know if that is possiable or able to give me an example of the code to use ?

This should help...has sample code too.. if this is not exactly what you want,  then what about using the extended help file link associated with a partial cui file? See CUI API
