Re: [TCP] Any fixes for RH 2000 with Word 2007 on XP?
Hi Gary, The reason you might have scored on buying RH2000 is because the version is ...I've lost count...something like 5-6 versions old (at least...9/9.1/X3/X4/X4.1/X5/6 (well, that's 7 versions and I think there were more) and there is no patch or way to run it with the most current version of Word 2007. The only version that is compatible with Word 2007 is the latest version or RoboHelp - RH7. So yes, if you want to use a RoboHelp2000 that is somewhere in the neighborhood of 7 years old, you'll have to go back to using a very old version of Office as well. The only workaround is to buy the current version. Sorry, Paula Paula R.

Re: [TCP] Any fixes for RH 2000 with Word 2007 on XP?
Thank you all for the information. Just for the record, I have used RoboHelp since version 3 and I knew what I was buying. I was just hoping some clever person had found a driver or interrepter that would save me the hassle of two version of MS Word on my system.

Re: [TCP] Any fixes for RH 2000 with Word 2007 on XP?
I can't remember who owned RoboHelp 2000 (I think it was eHelp?), but they'd provided a patch to support whatever the current version of Word was released while RH 2000 was the latest version. The system requirements (assuming you received a box) should specify the version of Word that would work. There would not be a driver or interpreter available, since RH integrates so tightly with Word (using DLLs). And FWIW, there's no hassle having two versions of Word installed. If you end up launching the wrong version by double-clicking a file, simply create a Send To shortcut for each version of Word. Then just right-click the file, choose Send To, and then the version you want to use. ...sue On 11/18/07, Gary Robinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thank you all for the information.
