Help not working properly 2

[mdav2]

Whenever I try to use help buttons or context sensitive help it does not work. Also the Microsoft Visual Help Topics F1 in the help menu is disabled.

I have MSDN installed onto my machine and I am running VFP 6.0.

If I use Help and either Content, Index or Search I can access the help files.

Anyone any idea why this is happening?

Where are you having the problem, in the project manager or when you run your project?

Go to your Tools menu and select Options. Click the "File Locations" tab, and find "Help File" in the list. Click the Modify button, then check the box that says "Use Help File". Make sure you click "Set As Default" before you close the Options box. )

Hi,

If the Tools Options doesn't work - and it didn't for me - then try this solution from the MSDN which did work for me.

Thanks chpicker that worked fine.

Thanks also to Sarklow, you've found something useful on MSDN - I never seem able to do this.
