Is anyone aware of a CHM help file viewer component for delphi ?
(or compatible activeX) so that the help file viewer can be embeded
in the application.
thanks
Jim
 

If you need to display only content, not navigation, index, search panels,
TWebBrowser will work.

part of Windows XP, but I am not sure for Windows 2000. And, it is not
originally part of Win9x, so you might have to install it for those
platforms. You can download the HTML Help install from Microsoft.
And, in your application, you can use the following component:

The component is free and works good. We are currently using it in our
applications.

Just a quick question on this as I use Help and Manual too. If you use
the component they've made available for displaying html help and you add it
to the application along with your html help file compiled, does the machine
the app and help file is run on need to have the Help Workshop installed on
it or will it run on any windows computer?

HTML Help Workshop. Look in the "redist" folder in the HTML Help Workshop's
installation folder, and you should find the viewer's install executable
called "hhupd.exe".
Here's the link to MS HTML Help FAQ, for more information:
