Re: How to convert UIM Help text to HTML for display on web page

This is a stretch but came to mind:

If you were using i Access for Web (or something similar) perhaps when you view the helptext while running the application you could take the option in the browser to "View Source", perhaps it would show there.

That assumes much: That iAccess for web actually renders HTML and that you *have* i Access.

Worth a shot, subject to the above assumptions.

Hello,

I am in the process of creating a web site using Microsoft Expression Web and would like to include some UIM Help text that I already have on the iSeries, without a manual re-typing if possible.

Is there a way to convert UIM Help text to HTML? Are there any APIs or tools available? I found the Retrieve Help Text (QUHRHLPT) API that I believe will convert the UIM help text to XML, but I would like to see what options are out there before I create programs just to try it out.

Thanks

Dave
