Once a source Help file is specified, you can easily map topics to controls within your application through C1DynamicHelp.

1. From the Toolbox, double-click the C1DynamicHelp control to add it to your form. An extender property, Help Topic on C1DynamicHelp, is added to all controls when C1DynamicHelp is added to the form.
2. Click the C1DynamicHelp smart tag () to open the Tasks menu.
3. Click the ellipsis button next to the HelpSource property.
4. Locate and select the desired Help file, and click Open.
5. Select one of the controls on your form and click the ellipsis button next to the HelpTopic on C1DynamicHelp property in the Properties window. The Select Help Topic dialog box appears and shows the Table of Contents tab and TOC from the specified Help file.
   

   By default, the Use default events check box is selected (the selected options will vary by the control you’ve chosen to map to). Got focus sets the Help topic to display when the control has been selected; Mouse hover sets the Help topic to display when the control has been hovered over. To change the default options, clear the Use default events check box and select either the Got focus or Mouse hover check box.

   • If mapping to the TOC: From the Select Help Topic dialog box, Table of Contents tab, choose a topic.
   • If mapping to the context ID list: From the Select Help Topic dialog box, Context ID tab, choose the context ID/Topic pairing.
     Note: In order to map to a topic, the topic must be in the Help TOC or have a context ID assigned to it; otherwise, it will not appear in the Select Help Topic dialog box. Also, if the Help author renames one of the TOC items, the mapping will break. You must get the updated Help and re-create the mapping with the updated TOC.
6. Click OK to close the Select Help Topic dialog box. The topic is mapped to the control and appears in the C1DynamicHelp Help window at run time when a user clicks or mouses over the control.
