It works with MSDN, it also works with the Platform SDK documentation. I have it set up in WinAsm, use the Tools Manager to set it up. Note: I was unable to get Tools Manager to accept both the executable and arguments (for the name of the help file), so I created a link and pointed Tools Manager to the link. It works. H2Viewer

I got it off a c++ disk that dates back about 5 years. it has a bunch of .chm's a bunch of .chi's, one .chw, and a .col

H2Viewer will work with the documentation that comes with the latest Platform SDK. I would recommend downloading it, it's up-to-date. In Tools Manager you can set up a menu item that loads a .chm file directly.
