@PeterD: Thx, I had this idea too, but unfortunately it doesn't work as expected. Anything I have to consider when creating this menuitem with shortcut F1?
The button does have to visible and enabled for this to work. Even if it is just 1 x 1 pixel.
My original response was completely serious, though. Anytime something doesn't work as expected or a user does something they shouldn't the first thing people try to do is take the ability away. Instead of learning what the system can do the users become trained monkeys, knowing nothing but the instructions from their initial training.
It's a waste of development time when five minutes of training would usually do the job. I don't see this as being any different.
u must not delete all help files or folders it's enough to
1.) rename the master.chm --> like to master.chm_
If the user press then F1 he becomes this message:
Microsoft Dynamics NAV Classic
The operating system cannot find the file C:\Programme\Entwicklung\NAV2009\Client\master.chm .
Verify that the drive, directory, and file names are correct.
OK
or
2.) rename the DEU and ENU folder like DEU_ ENU_
If the user press then F1, he becomes this message
Microsoft Dynamics NAV Classic
The Help system has been corrupted.
Ensure that the .hh files are correctly installed.
OK
so there is no need to develop anything in C/AL.

I totally agree. Where is the benefit if the user gets an error message he can't understand instead of an online help in an useless resolution?
