[ToolboxBitmap(typeof(C1DynamicHelp), "C1DynamicHelp.png")]
public class C1DynamicHelp : Control, IDropTarget, ISynchronizeInvoke, IWin32Window, IBindableComponent, IComponent, IDisposable, IExtenderProvider

Remarks

The C1DynamicHelp control displays help topics from CHM, NetHelp and other help files.

The HelpSource property specifies the help file containing the documentation.

Topics in the help file can be associated with components in the application either by a programmer at design time, using the HelpTopic extender property, or without programmers, using the control's 'authoring mode' facilities.
