    When I try to launch the HtmlHelp API function from a dialog box the window seems to be created but it is not shown. After that I have lost control of the help window and can no longer launch it from other parts of the program. The program is an MFC Dialog app. I can successfully launch the help window from the main dialog. I'm only having trouble from a child modal dialog. Here's how I am calling the function... HWND hwnd = HtmlHelp(::GetDesktopWindow(), ".\\MyProgHelp.chm", HH_DISPLAY_TOPIC, NULL); Thanks for any help!
