I have a client form that I have written an old-style MS help file for. I have had great success in making the help context sensitive, jumping automatically to specific topics within the file.

What I would also like to do is jump straight to the contents or index of the help file. How do I do this?

There are HELP_SETCONTENTS and HELP_SETINDEX tokens for the HelpStyle parameter, but the WIN_API_SHELL header tells me I must supply the topic ID of either the contents or the index as well. What are ths IDs? The contents is a seperate .cnt file, and the index is generated from footnotes within the rich text source file.
