Provides access to the Help Producer application.

Remarks

The Application object represents a Help Producer application, and provides access to all other objects used by Help Producer. The Application object can be either used directly through the Help Producer add-in in Microsoft Word (i.e. from a build script), or it can be created programmatically.

Example

The following example shows how to programmatically create a Help Producer Application object from a script running in the Windows Scripting Host.

[JScript]
To run the example, create a file called
test.js. To run the script in the console version of the Windows Scripting Host, execute the following command from the command‑line:

cscript test.js

Contents of test.js:

main();

function HelpProducer_ConsoleMessage(messageType, message)
{
   WScript.Echo(message);
}

function main()
{
   try
   {
      var app = WScript.CreateObject("Word.Application");
      var hp = WScript.CreateObject("HelpProducer.Application", "HelpProducer_");
      var doc = app.Documents.Open("C:\\test.doc");
      hp.Project.Export(doc);
      hp.Project.Compile(doc);
   }
   catch (e)
   {
      WScript.Echo("Error: " + e.message);
   }
   if (app != null)
      app.Quit(false);
}
