Creating and Using Context Sensitive Help

VBdocman can automatically generate help context ID numbers to all documented members so that they could be assigned to help topics. This feature is extremely useful in team work in conjunction with Source Safe and absolutely necessary for ActiveX controls developers.

When distributing ActiveX controls, all public methods and properties have to be documented very well for end user. With VBdocman it is a matter of a couple of seconds.

Creating context sensitive documentation

All you have to do is to check one or two check-boxes in options dialog and select the output format that supports context sensitive help (CHM or HLP). Topics in generated documentation will be automatically assigned to their members in source code. Getting help on some member is very simple.

You can see the help in Properties window and Object Browser and of course when you press F1. Your controls will behave exactly as built-in VB controls.
