Hey Guys,
I think this may be very tricky but maybe one of you has a solution.
I want to show a chm file, if a user is pressing f1 in our setups...so is that possible with windows function or whatever...
thanks in advance

Re: Recognize pressed function key
Dear Heiko,
unfortunately this is not possible or better it could be possible but it is not a simple thing ( ... you should create an external process which keep tracks of the Windows Message queue addressed to a particular window).
I suggest you to add a Help button to your setup dialogs and then, to catch the button selection via script to run your chm file.
It is much more simple.

Re: Recognize pressed function key
Thanks 
I have this already..I have the chm as file bag and open a direct html content on each dialog. This works very fine but F1 would be the best.
I am developing a customer services center with IA with now about 12.000 lines of code and a lot of functions (without any installs) and this is very professional...
OK I will ask our devTeam to help me in that case
