Is there any useful tool that can be used to convert all kinds of HELP files (like .chm, .hlp, ...) to one the newer formats like: .XPS .doc .docx .rtf .pdf
Hi Leon, It's not clear what you're looking to achieve. None of the formats in your 2nd list are Help formats. You may want to check with the folks in the MS Help cration discussion group using the link below. ============ <<"Leon_Amirreza" wrote in message news:edWHdKmZIHA.1212@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl...

I want to extract contents of the help files because most of the file formats are going to be obsolete! I dont want to convert a help file from a format to another I just want to convert help files to Text Documents to save their contents in another format worth keeping in backup Disks!
