Based on your suggestion I was able to borrow our group's April 2001 MSDN CD set and installed only the VFP portion. I saw that I had both FOXHELP.CHM and FOXHELP.CHI files in the ...\2001APR\1033 folder. I went into VFP 6 and set the help file location to the FOXHELP.CHM file in that folder and my help now works the way it used to. Thank you for all your help.

>Try to copy foxhelp.chm and foxhelp.chi from April's MSDN CD into VFP 6 home directory and point help file location to it.

>>I reinstalled and this time I do have a Fox7help.chm file. I used the VFP6 Tools/Options menu to set the file location for the help file. I specify the Fox7Help.chm file and press OK. I still can't get help when I press any "Help" buttons on a VFP screen or when I press the F1 key. This time I don't get any error messages but nothing happens at all. Am I missing something?

>>>I guess, you did minimal install. Try to install again but this time make sure that foxpro help gets installed on your drive.
