helpfile

I am developing a WinForms application and would like to integrate help into it. In the past I integrated .chm help files.

Does anyone have a

In the past I've used HTML Help Workshop, but this is ancient, and I recall it was a little funky to use. I also know there was a tool built into the Visual Studio 2005 SDK, but I need something for 2010. it is an awkward target for tool vendors.
