He may be using the 2.0.1 Windows version. Help for Calc was missing in that version.

I received messages exactly like this, except for the ID:, for every Spreadsheet help item. Writer Help worked just fine. I went to install and Repaired, but this did not solve the problem. So, I uninstalled Open Office and then reinstalled it from another source (PCAnswers magazine free disk), with the same result.

Danny,

I'm going to assume you have Windows and installed the English language version of OpenOffice. And I'm going to imagine I know what I am talking about.

Look in
C:\Program Files\OpenOffice.org 2.0\help\en
for
scalc.jar.

Is it there? If you don't find that path, you might try searching for scalc.jar.

I just happen to be learning about help files right now.

From
http://documentation.openoffice.org/online_help/techdetails.html
Help Module Contents Files (Section Archives)

The *.jar contents files contain the help topic files for a help section. It is an archive file with a subdirectory structure that contains all help xhp files. There is one archive per help section (sbasic, shared, sdraw, simpress, scalc, schart, swriter, smath). Each help module comprises more than one help section.
