>Hi,

Dennis, perhaps this will help, it's from a posting here on UT last December from Paul Brown:

"You need to check for FoxHHelp.exe and Foxhhelpss.dll on the system. The problem is the Setup Wiz doesn't include these files when you click HTML Help.

Solution:

1. get a new Setup Wiz from the micrsoft.com/vfoxpro site. It's not a part of VS SP1 (don't know why nit).

2.a For your machines that have been installed, simply transfer the files listed above to the machine. You can place them in the App directory or the Windows dir.

2.b Register these applications by the following commands from the Run prompt.

FoxHHelp.EXE /REGSERVER && You will not get a confirmation.
RegSvr32 FoxHHelpss.dll && You should get a confirmation on this one.

try help again. If it doesn't work now, you may have an old version of Internet Explorer (need SP1).

Let me know if you need more help.
