>One of my computers had an unfortunate run in with a faulty installation routine, to the point that reimaging with a prevously ghosted image was necessary. Anyway, pretty much everything seems to back in order, except for the help files for my Visual FoxPro 6. The Options are pointing to the right place for the help files, the help choices are not greyed out, but selecting them doesn't start up help. I tried to re-install the just Library, but this didn't appear to help any. Is there something else I can try before I uninstall and re-install Visual Fox?

No need to reinstall VFP. Look in the registry under:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualFoxPro\6.0\Options

Look in the right panel for the value HelpTo. You can double-click on that and enter the name of the help file to open. For example, mine is set to:

"D:\VisualStudio\MSDN\2001APR\1033\msdn110.col"

because I have installed the April 2001 MSDN Library.
