Does anyone know what the file RBASE.chw is? I've now re-downloaded the latest version of RB7.1 (Release Candidate5 7/14/2005) When I re-downloaded the help files, and looked through the RBG7 folder on my computer I found this file. It's not in the "typical install" documentation I have for XP. It has a created date of October 2003 and a modified date of yesterday -- when I originally downloaded the help files.
Also, clicking on the individual help files in Windows explorer causes dialog boxes to come up saying "unrecognized command, retype it" and one that says "more than 10000 lines or 400 items in input line" (happened clicking on the Gateway help) Also, clicking on the individual files to look at the properties shows a message at the bottom that reads "This file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect this computer" with a button next to it saying "unblock". When I clicked that, and tried to open the file...it made no difference. I'm wondering if a Windows update has caused some kind of a security lock on these.....

Good luck.

It's how I always unload the files. They download as zipped folders. I select "extract all files" from the menu and tell it what directory to send them to. The unzipped files are coming up with the date and time they were extracted. I just assumed that because they were overwriting the files that were already there.

One thing I did notice though is that they still tell you can update multi-table views.

Even after reloading them again I can't get them to work...so now I have no working help files at all.

Go out to Windows Explorer and check the dates on the chm files in your RBG7 folder to be sure they are all dated 7/14.

I downloaded the new help files, unzipped them to RBTI\RBG7 directory as instructed. Then I opened RBase and clicked on the help icon and it came up with the index list on the left of the screen and an internet page fault on the right with and ACTION CANCELLED page error fault. Do I have to do something besides extracting the files to the correct directory? I've never been sent to a web page when opening help files before (unless I specifically selected going to online help).
