Is there a way to integrate custom help into the Office 2010 Help System? - office-2010

I'm working in an Excel add-in. I want to add its own help. I don't care if it replaces the general Excel help - I want to know how.
What I was able to was to add custom help into VS 2010, using the Help Viewer. Does this work for office?
Also, if I had to add a button on the ribbon for the add-in, is there a way to make the information displayed online? I don't like including a file with the installer.
Thanks a lot, guys!!!

Excel's Help System is the Help 2.x System, which is different to the VS Help Viewer, a new Help System that will be included in new Microsoft applications.
To add help into the Help 2.x System in general you can use its plug-in mechanisms.
Finally, there is no way to make that help online. The help file must always be included with the add-in installer.

OpenEdge Developer Studio is built on Eclipse where usually the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+J can be used to create JavaDoc for classes and methods.

Create an application GUI by Javafx

everyone.
My name is Nick, a totally newbie to Javafx. Recently, our team has been running a project and we would love making GUI by Javafx. I am being stuck at the moment. The following is what's in our imagination:

I would recommend using Scenebuilder tool. It is a WYSIWYG GUI editor provided especially for the purposes like yours.
Look at this links.. using this you don't want design manually.. with netbeans you can design just by drag and drop content what you want.
Scene builder is also good tool to design your system at a stretch.

How do I create an OLE Control?

Without going into why I need OLE.. I need to embed a managed C++ custom control into MS Word 2007 (2003 also would be nice).
So the question is How do I make this managed (.net 3.5) control OLE compliant ?
It seems that I need to do something akin to implementing an interface. But an up-to-date tutorial is something that is proving difficult to find.
I've read the wikipedia article on OLE. All the information that I could google out is ancient (1994) and/or VB centric (4.0-6.0). Anything that makes sense to current times... links/books please post.
Thanks for reading..
