The 6.0 object model does not yet appear to be on the MSDN site, which is where you'd want to look. (It's too recently released to have been on the July CDs.)

The code you posted is VB. Of course it wouldn't work in VFP, right?

>Set oexplorer = CreateObject("internetexplorer.application")
>oexplorer.navigate = "File://" & CurDir & "\Help\index.html"
>oexplorer.Visible = True

You need something like:

LOCAL oe
oe = CREATEOBJECT("InternetExplorer.Application")
oe.navigate("File://" + CurDir() + "\Help\index.html") && Assuming CurDir() doesn't have a space.
oe.visible = .t.
