Hi Jim, What you are looking at is the Microsoft knowledge base for VB 6. I don't think you can view those chm files individually. I think they are linked in someway so the help system can search all of the files for a certain method, function, or sub. So you can't just take one and extract it to text. I've never created multiple chm files like that myself but I know it is possible. Basically, all a chm file is a bunch of extremely compressed html files. Kind of like a zip archive but visible through Microsoft help.
