>Not with the VFP 6 help. But you can open the CHM file in the HTML Help Workshop and choose decompile. That would create a lot of megs with all HTML files that are included into the CHM file. You then could add those files to a DBF or create your own HLP file from it. It's a lot of work, though...

And anyway, once you learn to navigate the interface, the MSDN help is just as useful as previous VFP help. It's just a matter of getting accustomed to the interface. Of course we're talking about user preference here (you and I being the users), so anything said about whether it's good or bad is pure opinion.
