Changes in 1.9.5 * NEW!!! We've improved VB HelpWriter's exclusive HelpCase(tm) technology. Now VB HelpWriter will read your program source code, generate a starting helpfile, and update your source code to provide complete context sensitive help on every form and control! Your program is updated with all the correct HelpContextIDs and a complete, custom module of WINHELP API calls is added to your project! NO MORE CODING! * Automatic backup of last version when saving * Autogeneration improvements result in better looking helpfiles * Removes itself completely from memory on exit (bug fix) * Fixed a problem with deleting topics (window settings got offset) * Full editing capability for existing jumps, macros, and WAVE files Changes in 1.9.4 * Topic information form and bitmap form are now user placeable * Improved detection of compiler errors Changes in 1.9.3 * Jump Destination form is now a sorted list. * New!, sorted topic selection window from info dialog or main form * Added suppression of topic footers on individual topics (Standard and PRO only) * Fixed occasional problem with "drag 'n drop" mouse operation in edit window * Better hints and suggestions sprinkled throughout the program. * Added complete list of Context IDs and Browse IDs to Jump Report * Added a GLOSSARY import/export capability * Caption on GLOSSARY button based on user entered GLOSSARY title * Fixed problem with BROWSE sequence arrows. * Fixed problem with double-clicking on an invalid jump * Topic List can now be searched with keypresses * Autogenerate form now "Always on top" to prevent "hidden form" syndrome. * Added CANCEL option when opening new files or exiting the program. ================================================================================== Changes in 1.9.2 * Fixed "No Word Wrap" feature to NOT insert a CR before paragraphs * Fixed syntax errors in automatically generated CONTXTID.BAS (SORRY bout that) * Added dialog when first opening a file if resources are too low * Fixed "Endless loop" when closing a topics before compile if topic is too large * Autogenerate now **PRESERVES** all existing HelpContextIDs (That means there's no tinkering with your VB code after autogeneration) * Autogenerate now creates a separate topic for each control on a form with a valid HelpContextID (<32000) * Existing Help Macro copied to the macro entry panel when using macro picklist =========================== Known bugs and workarounds ============================ *** "Font Selection listbox" does not work with NT 3.5 (Daytona) The font selection listbox on the bottom button bar causes a GPF when running under Windows NT 3.5. We are working on a solution. In the meantime, please use the "F" button on the top button bar instead. *** Video driver incompatibilities There is a compatibilty problem with the Trident super VGA drivers. Sometimes switching to the standard Windows Super VGA drivers, running VB HelpWriter, then switching back to the Trident driver will clear things up. Otherwise, please use the standard SVGA driver that comes with Windows until Trident releases the fix. This advice is probably good for other driver incompatibilities as well. *** GPF when opening "Helpfile Options" or "Program Options" dialogs. Check to insure you don't have an older version of VSVBX.VBX on your system or already running with another program. Reboot Windows and run only VB HelpWriter to insure hardware compatibility, then try running other programs 1 at a time. *** 3D dialogs may cause problems with Norton Desktop or OS/2 *** If your system hangs(GPFs) when loading, add the line: "3D=0" to your HELPWRIT.INI file, under the OPTIONS heading, as shown below... [OPTIONS] 3D = 0 ************************************************************************
