Could someone please recommend a good software to create help files? Also,
if it possible to embed other files i.e. Excel, PDF etc, into CHM or HLP
files?
You can use HTML Help Workshop for creating CHM files:
Associating Help with an Application
<http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnvssamp/html/vbcs_AssociatingHelpwithanApplication.asp>
You will find some samples at:
<http://www.mvps.org/htmlhelpcenter/>
Microsoft HTML Help Downloads
<http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/htmlhelp/html/hwMicrosoftHTMLHelpDownloads.asp>
IMO it doesn't make sense to include Excel and PDF files into CHM files...
