Hi all,

I'm trying to use a help file based on a zero-install of VFP. What I mean by zero-install is that the application has been compiled, and in a stand-alone directory including

HelpTest.exe
MyHelp.chm

and the minimum exe/dlls for VFP including
MSVCR71.dll
VFP9R.DLL
VFP9ENU.DLL
VFP9T.DLL

To eliminate any other possibilities of application requirements, I created a simple HelpTest.exe that has a simple form, button and read-events so it remains in VFP for the test.

In the CLICK of the button, I have

set help to fullpath( "MyHelp.chm" )
help id 123  && which is a valid topic id

The help does NOT even open. Does VFP have some other launch exe that passes the activation to a different CHM file?

Thanks
