Dex: Adding items to the Help menu in GP 10.0

Posted on by Ron Draganowski 1,575 
Greetings, all.  I posted this on the Dyn GP developer site, but I thought I would post here to for more exposure.
 I'm frustrated.  The interface all of our consultants are 
used to with our GP Dex customs is "click on help, then 'About ... Custom".  
On page 172 of the Dex 10 Integration Guide (IG.PDF), it says the command for 
the help menu is CL_Help of form Command_System.  And it was.  That's what I 
used on GP 8 and GP 9.  But on GP 10, it doesn't work.

I know some developers have figured out to do it, such as Ethotech.  Would 
anybody be so kind as to let me in on the big secret: what's the new command 
object for the new help menu in GP 10?

    Just noticed this is a resurfaced old post, but responding anyway.

    Hi Ron

    The most common method used for adding a Dexterity addon's about window to the application is actually using a form trigger on the About Box window.  So you select Help >> About Dynamics GP >> Additional >> About Product.

    Did you get this sorted using the actual help menu?
