The Help file you can include depends on the operating system selection you make on the Select the Target Operating System page of the CMAK wizard:
- If you selected Windows 7 or Windows
Vista, then you can include a .chm file in your connection
profile. For more information about how to create a custom .chm
file, see Providing Custom Connection Manager Help
(.chm) (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=80959) on the
Microsoft Web site.
- If you selected Windows XP, Windows
Server 2003, and Windows 2000, then you can include
an .hlp file in your connection profile. For more information about
how to create a custom .hlp file, see Providing Custom Windows Help (.hlp)
(http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=80970) on the Microsoft Web
