DC Help Authority Description
DC Help Authority is a handy and lightweight COM component designed to help programmers and developers create context-sensitive help sections for all the controls in any form or window of your application. This way, you can easily provide clear explanations to your users, letting them know how to use options and functions to get the most out of a software program.
The purpose of DC Help Authority is to provide developers with a method to make their applications much more user-friendly and comprehensive.
What would otherwise be a large help file is split into several sections to describe a function or a feature as the mouse cursor hovers over it, in a similar way to Microsoft’s WinHelp. The advantage is that users get help on the spot, without having to open the offline documentation and search through large chunks of text and pictures.
DC Help Authority is compatible with all the COM-based applications: Borland C++, Delphi, Visual Basic, and Visual Basic C++. Thanks to its simple syntax and simple functions, you can integrate it within your project with ease. It works with most programming languages and you can use the integrated Configuration Utility to set the language.
Once installed, DC Help Authority automatically registers its corresponding DLL files on your computer, making it easy to deploy. In order to integrate the component in your project, you just have to add the corresponding reference to the code.
