Jacob - it looks like what you have there is just how to add another help
button to the menu - I want to know how to merge help documentation into the
existing help system so that when my add-in is inside someone's excel
workbook, they can get help on the functionality just like they would any
other Excel function.

Hi Matthew

The below will take you in the right direction...You can try the below code
to initiate in open event..which will identify the Help Control and add a new
button named "New Help" and assign that to a Macro which exists in the
add-in. Try and feedback


Dim cbMainMenuBar As CommandBar
Dim cbcCutomMenu As CommandBarControl

Set cbMainMenuBar = Application.CommandBars("Worksheet Menu Bar")
Set cbcCutomMenu = cbMainMenuBar.Controls("Help")
With cbcCutomMenu.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton)
.Caption = "New Help"
.OnAction = "Macro1"
End With

Hi - is there a way to add a new section to the Microsoft Excel help? We
have an Add-In and want the users to be able to bring up help for using it
inside of Excel. Is there a way to merge into that file programatically?
