P.S. hlp files no longer work with Vista at all according to Wikipedia.
They require chm help files (which I hate).
I hate 'em too. I'm still maintaining a couple of databases written
in Win95 and used by a large hobby group. They upgraded to Vista
without much problem and the compiled .hlp file works OK. But when
I try to run the HCW help system, Vista complains bitterly that it's not
a Win32 file and refuses to help. If things get desperate I'll try see if it
will run on Linux with the Wine interface.
