Creating .DBF-Style Help

.DBF-style Help is simple to create and uses standard Microsoft® Visual FoxPro® tables that port easily to other Visual FoxPro platforms. If you want a simple solution to providing help, if you are developing cross-platform applications, or if you prefer to maintain a backward-compatible help file, you can provide .DBF-style help for your users.

In This Section

  • .DBF-Style Help Design
    .DBF-style Help files, or Help tables, are free tables that are displayed in the Help window.
  • Viewing the Sample .DBF-Style Help File
    The .DBF Help window has two modes, Topics and Details. The Topics mode displays a list of all the topics in the Help file.
  • .DBF-Style Help Access and Display
    Your user will be able to easily access Help if you include a Contents command on your Help menu that uses the HELP command. When a user chooses the Contents command, the Help window appears in Topics mode.
  • Customizing .DBF-Style Help
    In your application code, you specify which Help file is used, which and when topics are displayed, and other optional settings.
  • Creating Help Files
    Help files are a valuable source of information for users of your application. With Microsoft® Visual FoxPro®, you can choose to create Winhelp, HTML Help or .DBF-style Help.
  • Creating Graphical Help
    Graphical Help can be Winhelp for a Microsoft® Windows® look and feel or HTML Help for a Web look and feel.
