Set default HTML Help page?

[Craig Buchanan]

Is there a way to set a default page to be displayed when a .chm file is
opened? I would like to display the page associated with the first item in
the Contents.

Thanks,

Craig

you can do this with Microsoft HTMLHelp Workshop.

1. Open your HHP file with HH Workshop
2. Click the first icon "Change project options" on the "Project" tab
3. Set the "Default file" from the file list of the combo box
4. Compile your project

Hello Craig,
There is a better tool than HTML Help Workshop. Its name is Pocket CHM. You
can set the default page very conveniently in Pocket CHM. Try it.
