Hi, I'm new on this website as you may already know. I've created a nifty calculation program (not a calculator, a simultaneous equation solver). I've also created a help file named 'help.chm'. I'm trying to make a menu item open it without having a dialog box come up, but I don't know how to do that, so can anyone help me please. I'm new to VB so i'm not so good at it right now.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
