Using a WebBrowser control with a treeview for a help utility - question

[guyinkalamazoo3]

I have a project in which I also am including a winform for help. On the form I used a Split where the left side is the treeview with the help topic nodes and then on selection, I would like the winform control on the right to open a file that I have added to the project, except whenever I try to use the path to that file, it fails. Under the project I have a Files | HelpFiles folder where some html content files are going, then I am using a streamreader to open and display the file. When troubleshooting, I did copy the files to a share, pointed the browser to the share and it works. I have also changed the property of the file to Copy If Newer to the Output directory. Is there something I am missing?

Here is my code and syntax if Node(0) is clicked. Thanks for any help


Dim reader As New StreamReader("..\Files\HelpFiles\Purpose.html")
webHelp.DocumentText = reader.ReadToEnd()
