That sort of works, that is I get a spurious IE window open with "Action cancelled" and a warning dialog from SP2 about am I sure I want to run this file every time, then it does open......is there no more direct way to open a help file???
John Try something along the lines of C:\Windows\hh.exe as the exe to run C:\Program Files\borland\Delphi5\Help\delphi5.hlp as the parameter to it. HTH, Conor -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Bird Accessing older help for D2006 I have a cunning plan....I tried adding to the Tools menu a tool saying "c:\Program Files\borland\Delphi5\Help\delphi5.hlp" But this does not work.....it complains of cannot execute this (error 2) I tried a few variations as well (setting working dir etc but it also does not like this)... any suggestions? I think the problem is that the tool has to be an .exe file, and any of the usual tricks such as start Delphi5.hlp or cmd /c delphi.hlp don't work either...
