[Dx4win] issues with help in version 7.03

[Tony Lord]

Paul,

Having read this thread I thought I would check out my help file and I came
across a very funny/strange result. 

If I open DX4WIN 7.013.16 via start/programmes/dx4win then the help file
will not load, it says, "Could not get contents, Error = 0, Msg = the
operation completed successfully".

However if I open DX4WIN via MyComputer/C drive/Program Files/DX4W703 and
double click on the programme file, then when DX4WIN is launched, Help files
open and work! (also if I create a shortcut from there and place on desktop
it works)

Op System is Win XP.

Explain that one if you can Hi Hi

Hi,

We have seen a few reports that the on-line help for version 7.03 cannot
be started. This happens when pressing F1 or starting the help from the 
menu. This affects a few users; and it works for most. So my question
is what is different between the two groups. I have a suspicion that this
could be related to virus checkers, exotic patches that only some of
us have applied, other software that interferes etc. In other words,
I have no clue (yet).

At this time, I do not even know what questions to ask. OS version, etc.

If the help fails for you, there is one experiment you could do. 
After renaming the files (!!!) , use the version 7.02 help in 7.03 and use 
the 7.03 help file in version 7.02. This way we can determine if it is
something 
in the help file or how the help file is used.

Send results to me and I will summarize.

73, Paul
