Heather, I emailed the general metrowerks email about why that section of
the help menu was not working. I cannot find the email but it was sent in
mid june. If I didnt get a tracking number then I am assuming it never
went through (which is probably my fault) so for the record of not wanting
you to look bad I am sending this back to the news group. I have actually
been quite impressed with the response times of help from the CW staff.
Now, back to the issue, is there a way I can get the 'Error Reference'
part of the help menu working for the "C/C++ Compiler Reference"? I am
wondering if I am the only person who is getting that error since nobody
in here has ever mentioned it before... anyway, was that something that
was taken out? I will try your suggestions too, thanks.
Matt
