Is [FILES] section generated by the Visual C ? I'm using MinGW, so I can't tell. When I manually set [FILES] and compile, everything is O.K. with CHM , but wxHelpControler is not working properly - "search" does not see files under /pg subdir. For example serach for "CREATE TYPE" does not find any matches. With separate pgsql help it would be possible to have last pgadmin version, and version of pgsql docs for example for 7.3.1. It is also big question if win32 builds should call .CHM directly without using wxHelpControler class (windows users are familiar with it, ,can have "favorites" tab, and it is much faster in "search"). I'm not trying to criticize, but figure out what would be the best solution. However, maybe this is not right time to discuss it, because first release is very close. Regards !
