I'm trying to create the "Help" window for an application I'm working on, consisting of a modal window, with a listbox (for the index) and a webBrowser gadget displaying the help html files;

Problem is BlueGUI's webBrowser thing doesn't seem to work anymore.

I know RobK isn't working on BlueGUI anymore, so is there an alternative way of doing this?

I know I could just call the help files in a proper internet explorer window through DBP, but I'd prefer to have it as described above.

Thanks in advance again

I think there's an extra .dll or something you have to include to get the webbrowser to work, check the examples

@Diggsey:
I have included the dll, and I've tried the examples.

Even the examples don't work anymore (altho they used to when I bought BlueGUI I'm sure, lol)

I'm guessing it's either a Windows 7 issue, or else MS have changed the way IE works in a newer update

I can't find anything on MSDN about web browser gadgets.

Hence asking here
