Interactive Help Sample - Dynamic Text

This help file demonstrates the use of Dynamic Text in a Help File.

In order to include dynamic "fields" in your document you will need to use the EWVar embedded window supplied by Interactive Help.

In your WinHelp RTF sources you will insert embedded window references (Using the RTF \{ewX ... \} command, where X is c, l or r for center, left or right alignment respectivly).

If you are using a Word based authoring toolkit, insert {ewX ... } to create the appropriate RTF codes.

The following is an example of an embedded window command :

\{HLPDKDLL, EWVar, myVar\}

In this example the output of the text will be taken from the PASTERP variable myVar.
