I appreciate your efforts, but your project is just too dependent on other
files. I prefer pure VB code - that is - it's ok with references - but I
prefer to call the API instead.

So, I'll rather do it from scratch (as I've obtained the right SDK for HTML
help). It will be some long nights ahead, but it will be worth is as long as
I can stay independent :) But as I said - thank you for answering me.
