Access VBA help files missing?

[jessa_lee]

None of the Access VBA help files are showing up within
Access help. Instead I get an error message that says to
check to be sure they were installed properly. I checked
and double checked that all the needed links to help files
were installed correctly. I even uninstalled and
performed a custom reinstall of MS Office Pro 2000 just to
be sure, and still nothing for the VBA help files.

Anything else I can do to get this?

Maybe this will help.

thanks!

That pointed me in the right direction. When I read over that info, I followed another link on the page to the "Office Updates" page that has a device to scan the page for updates much like the Windows updates page.

Thanks!

nope

Well, I ran all the updates recommended on the site. Already had SP1, got SP2 & 3. Still getting same error when trying to access the help files, as if they haven't been installed or linked properly...

Have you followed the other instructions of the web page, ie. copying of the files to correct location etc?

sorry

I totally missed the "workaround" section on that page! When I copied all those chm files over, half of the missing help files showed up. Only problem is that ALL of the help files ending like (ADO) are still missing their help topics. *sigh* I'm halfway there...

Thanks again,
Jessa

Well, I went through and double checked and re-copied some of the smae files (overwriting the ones I'd previously moved). I made sure Access was shut down. It seems every time I log back in, I'm able to see more and more of those help topics that didn't exist before. I believe my problem is solved - thank you!!!
