Open a command line, type hhc.exe. Do you have it in your path?

C:\Documents and Settings\scriptX.HACKTIK>hhc.exe
'hhc.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

I have D:\Compilers\MinGW\bin in my PATH variable.

Yes, but to create the chm help files you need to download the chm compiler from Microsoft site.

oh ::)

Edit: Hmmm... I searched for "chm compiler," "chm compile," and "chm" on Microsoft's website and couldn't find it. Can you point me in the right direction? :(

Maybe it is this. I am not sure, I don't use Windows.
