I agree:  qdoj  is not friendly, even though I intended it to be.  Though I 
recently thought of a better solution, which I will be
implementing in the coming months.

In any case, did you see this message?

Perserverence is a virtue, and I'm glad you got  qdoj  running.  However, as I 
noted:

DB>  you don't really need  qdoj  to work. 

See the cited message for the reasons.  

With respect to your observation:

RM>   the significance of '\..\release\noncpat' isn't the most 
RM>   obvious

Again, I agree.  As I said earlier:

DB>  there's rarely an obvious mapping between the links in the

and

DB>   So now I've started including URLs; you can always use those

Maybe I'll add a function to  qdoj  that ties it to the  htmlhelp_j_  utility, 
so it will launch your browser with the relevant
file loaded.

Now I have a question for you:

RM>  c:\j\j607\system\extras\help\release\

Is the "607" a typo, or are you just on really good terms with Roger?
