Hello.
I'm using WinHelpViewer and RBuilder.hlp, but I need an up-to-date format.

    Hi Sergey,

    This is not currently a feature of the end-user designer in ReportBuilder.
    We will consider adding end-user Help 2 support for a later release of
    ReportBuilder.

    You can use the TppDesigner.OnHelp event to implement custom help logic.

    WinHelp still works on Vista and Windows 7, but you have to download and
    install it, it is not installed by default.

    HtmlHelp is a common alternative to WinHelp.

    Visual Studio and RAD Studio/Delphi use the Help2 format, however according
    to MS, it was not intended for common use (I know makes no sense to me
    either).

    I couldn't find HtmlHelp in a version 11.08, only WinHelp and Help2. Where
    can I get HtmlHelp for ver. 11.08 ?

    Hi Sergey,

    We do not provide an HTML Help version of the help file with ReportBuilder.
    Currently you would need to convert the WinHelp to HTML Help yourself using
    a conversion utility such as Help and Manual.

    Learning ReportBuilder, includes HTMLHelp. Learning ReportBuilder is
    designed for end-users.

    The ReportBuilder Help is not intended to be distributed to end-users.
