I have never seen a direct converter, but you can decompile a HLP file into it's constituent parts. Then you can either read the RTF files into Word and export as HTML (yuck!) or you can use the Microsoft HTML Help Workshop to convert entire project to HTML. There are number of HLP decompilers around. I use Helpdeco, which is freeware. Try the Wextech site, which I think is http://www.wextech.com . Wextech also supply a free decompiler called Paper Trail, but that only decompiles 16-bit help.
