I just went poking about in the HS+ (CFStudio) Options tab...
If you go into options/settings/locations and change the Help location
to a different folder, and put the new help files in that folder, it
may help. I'd create and use a different folder for this, just to make
sure you're forcing new files and not re-reading from a voodoo cache.
Let us know how you come out...
