Right-click the file list view and select "Add files". I didn't see this Helpbook feature before. However, I could not get it to compile after that. Unless, Boa Constructor is doing something while building CHMs that integrates with the app development, I recommend that you try a specialized tool for the job instead. Boa was an extremely promising tool when I saw it about 6 yrs ago or so at 0.0.1 (it already had a streamlined WYSIWYG GUI builder with a code aware editor back then, something we still don't have elsewhere for Python). But the development never seemed to gather steam since then. 0.4.4 is not even listed as a release on the home page and it is almost 2 yrs old. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
