I'm trying to create a help file using Docmaker.
When I press F1 on a function I created, the help file is loaded but it doesn't jump to the right function, instead it reports that it can't find the page.
What could I have done wrong ?

From the manual:
OpenHelp("help.chm", "index.htm")
OpenHelp("help.chm", "print.txt")
Remember, the 2nd parameter has to match the page name you're trying to display...
If the original page that contains the about text was called about.htm you must call it like this:
OpenHelp("help.chm", "about.htm")

You need to check 'User library' checkbox when creating the help with the DocMaker and it should work.

After a lot of trying I got it working.
I had to check the "don't include folders in compiled file" option in the HTML Help Workshop otherwise it didn't work for some reason.
