>Ok, I have seen the reasons why our CHM help files no longer work on our client installations. I know that I can have the users copy the help file to their local drive and it will work when run from Windows Explorer. From an installation standpoint, this seems to be a little awkward. What is everyone else doing about their online help documentation if they are not copying the CHM files to local drives? Are there any other solutions where the help information can be stored on a network and called from a VFP application, possibly something other than CHM?

Did you see my FAQ #28607? It shows examples of files which you can share, and execute on every machine, to enable opening the CHM files from the server.

An alternative might be to create separate HTML files in a directory, one for each topic.
