    Hello All,

    I am developing an Alarm Manager with additional features which would be helpful to operator. I want to create the alarm manager with additional button of Help file that can show the corresponding help or further information of that alarm when clicked. The Help files are based on .HTML file. with using alarmselectionInfo block i can get the current alarm number and other details. All i want to know is that how can i link the .html file which i will store in visu folder to link with that alarm.

    Ant help would be appericated, if some one has a sample program with this feature please attach so that whole community including me can be benifited.

    Thank you again!!!

    Have you looked into the visuDialogs library? You could use this to open a file browse dialog set to the default directory of the HTML help file, and dynamically modify the path for each alarm instance. I hope this helps point you in the right direction.
