The below information pertains to sharing Help Favorites but the principle applies. You can save a copy of your hh.dat file but it would only be usable on your own system and only if the listed parameters were unchanged. The favorites list is kept in the file hh.dat, (a binary file that can not be edited) which is in this directory: \Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Microsoft\HTMLHelp To access your favorites list, other users would need to overwrite their own copy of hh.dat with yours. They'd also need to ensure that both you and they have: 1) The same absolute paths to the help files on your systems. 2) The same version of HTML Help installed. For example, an hh.dat file created on an system with HTML Help 1.4 components may not work on an HTML Help 1.3 system. -- Gene Young Researching Young, Harer, Cox & Sallada With Legacy Family Tree Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp To unsubscribe: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/LegacyLists.asp
