If you want to check the progress of your work, you can use the Help Authoring Templates to create a Help file from the topics you are working on and display the built file in Windows Help. You can create a temporary Help file of the entire topic file, a portion of the topic file, a single topic, or a selection within a topic.
To build the file, the template creates the temporary files TEMP.RTF and TEMP.HPJ. After the file is built, the template starts Windows Help and opens TEMP.HLP, which contains the topic file, topic, or selection.
