精灵

有时为了提高客户体验，往往会在程序中增加帮助系统，当年OfficeXP提供了一种叫助手精灵的帮助插件，一个小老头来帮助用户使用Office。现在Win7了，直接使用以往的Ms Agent来开发老头做使用帮助的话，会出现不兼容的情况（即使安装了MS的兼容包，老头也不是透明的，会有粉色的背景。）。当然，也可以选择自己用不规则窗体开发一个精灵老头，只不过种类繁多的魔法动作就难以实现了。不过还好，国外有人已经把Ms Agent修改了为兼容Win7的DoubleAgent。这里给出下载连接：X86版的DoubleAgent。

    下载后即可安装，至于那些精灵的文件，网上有很多，MS官网有4种基本精灵的文件：

    另外还有个地址有一些用户个人开发的精灵文件：不过个人看，还是老头顺眼点。

    把DoubleAgent和精灵安装后，就可以在代码中使用了。首先引用DoubleAgent的组件：Double Agent ActiveX Control，拖动出来的实例为axDaControl系列。

    DoubleAgent的使用方法和Ms Agent完全一样，另外安装包中还给了Doc，可以参考。

    另外给出我简单写的一个DoubleAgent使用类的代码。代码中DoubleAgent的加载精灵在MainForm的单件中。
