ActiveX message using help file 3

[keepingbusy]

Hi

For some reason each time I try to access the VFP 9 help file the following messagebox appears:

An ActiveX control on this page might be unsafe to interact with other parts of the page. Do you wish to allow this interaction?

If you select Yes, the help file does appear but when you try to view the examples, the hyperlinks will not expand.

A couple of searches revealed that this could be setting in IE so I changed that without success. I am also using a FireFox browser but that doesn't have settings the same as IE9.

I have not installed any additional software and this message has only recently appeared. Virus checked etc all done.

Any suggestions would be very much appreciated as the help file is very useful.

I am using VFP9, Windows 7.

Thank you

Lee

dan is right, that could help.

But actually as you said the help refused to work recently, my thinking was the flaw could be fixed by a reinstall. Because of course while installing, the vfp9 runtimes and fox9hhelp.exe are registered during the setup process.

You might try to uninstall first, then perhaps install to C:\Users\Public\VFP9 instead of the default installation folder.

Bye, Olaf.
