MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / December 2006Can't open certain help file pages
Office 2003 In Word VBA (as well as Excel VBA), if I type a help term in the "Type a question for help" box, several help file pages shown as hyperlinks generally appear. However, those links with "(Visual Basic for Applications)" at the end of the help-page name do not work when I click on them. (Example: "Character Set (0-127) (Visual Basic for Applications)".) Nothing happens. Other hyperlinks, to Word-, Excel-, or Office-related VBA help pages, work fine in bringing up the relevant help page. In the Office 2003 installer, Office Shared Features > Visual Basic > Visual Basic Help is installed. Any ideas on how to make these help pages appear? Thanks. Windows XP Office 2003 Well, thanks everybody, but I had to figure this one out for myself. The relevant files apparently end up in the wrong folder during installation. Perhaps this is due to using Office 2003 with Windows XP. Anyway, I copied the following help-related files: FM20.CHM fm20.chw VBCN6.CHM vbcn6.chw VBE6INTL.DLL VBENDF98.CHM VBHW6.CHM VBHW6.chw VBLR6.CHM VbLR6.chw VBOB6.CHM vbob6.chw VBUI6.CHM Vbui6.chw from this folder: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VBA\VBA6\1033 to this folder: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\1033 As a result, the formerly problematic help files are accessible in Word VBA. > Office 2003 > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > Any ideas on how to make these help pages appear? Thanks. jw was telling us: jw nous racontait que : > Windows XP > Office 2003 [quoted text clipped - 32 lines] > As a result, the formerly problematic help files are accessible in > Word VBA. I think that there is something wrong with your set up. On my system, all those files you mentioned are in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\VBA\VBA6\1033 and I can access any topic I want form the VBE help interface.
