After you have installed Doc-To-Help, you will be asked if you would like to install the C1DynamicHelp Control. This control has been included with Doc-To-Help at no cost and can be used by software developers to create a dynamic Help pane in any application developed in Microsoft Visual Studio.NET. If you download the control, provide your software developers with the download location, as well as the DynamicHelp serial number you were provided with. If you would like to see this control in action, check out the Dynamic Help pane of Doc-To-Help.
A few notes about the DynamicHelp control
Please note: If you are not the software developer who will be implementing the DynamicHelp control, please pass this information along to software development.
•The C1DynamicHelp control can be only be used in the Microsoft Visual Studio (version 2005 or greater) development environment. (Software developers must have Visual Studio installed to use the control, but end users of the application developed will not.)
•The entire ComponentOne Studio for WinForms suite will be installed, however, the serial number you received is for the DynamicHelp control only.
•At the end of the install for Studio for WinForms, the installer will prompt you for your serial number. Do not enter your serial number at this time, since it is asking for a serial number for the entire studio and you only have a serial number for DynamicHelp.
•To activate Dynamic Help, you must activate through Visual Studio following the steps below:
1. Start a new WinForms project.
2. Go to the Toolbox.
3. Select Dynamic Help and add it to the form.
4. Right-click on the control and choose About.
5. In the About box, click the Activate button.
6. Enter the Dynamic Help serial number to activate.
