Hi,

Have you looked in that directory to see whether the helpfile exists in that directory?

Did it work before well?

Have you checked the Required System Files:
http://tds.diamondcs.com.au/index.php?page=files

Does the Helpfile for other programs work well?
I seem to remember that Microsoft warned in general that Helpfiles might not work in case you didn't had some patch; at the moment I can't remember what it was about....

Have you checked the path to verify that the helpfiles are actually in the location in the error message?

The help file should be 785KB 2/07/2001 in the \tds3\help folder.

Try doing a search for tds-3.hlp and if it is found see if it is in this location C:/program Files/TDS-3/help/tds-3.hlp

HTH....

ran the search and it found nothing ::)

[puff-m-d]

Then it appears your help files are missing....

I think you can do a reinstall on top of the old and it will replace your help files... But I would wait for one of the experts here (like Pilli) to verify this before you do it ;) ....

HTH....

Your best bet maybe to re-install TDS over your current version, this should put the file back in the correct place, sounds like it has been inadvertantly deleted :)

:owell that worked ;Dtks for all the help Kent&Pilli :)

[puff-m-d]

No problem ;) .... Just glad you got it working ;D !!!

Glad it all works again! If it would not have worked via the console, it would have been possible finding it in the place as Pilli and Kent said and click from there on it.

We should create some "CallHELP!"script, so shouting Help it does open the helpfile for you. In fact i have one which works on my dutch windows version, as part of the CokeMachine script; think you have it Kent?

Hi Jooske,

No, I do not have it... Would love to try it tho...
