>>If VFP 6.0 was not purchased separately, it may explain the problem you're having. VS 6.0, when the install concludes asks if you want to install the documentation (MSDN library). This is were the VFP help gets installed. These are disks numbered 5 and 6. They're referred to as library disks 1 and 2, however. You can install these at a later time without problem. BTW, the actually FoxPro help file is FoxHelp.chm. You'll want, however, to also get the files for the ActiveX controls.

Hi Tim,

Whoops, the foxhelp.chm was the name under one of the betas. In VFP in the VS release the name of my help file (returned by SET('HELP', 1)) is MSDNVS98.COL. My VS Enterprise came with the MSDN Universal subscription.

hth,
George
