My problem is observed by staring winhelp directly from the command line with the help file to open as the first argument. > > Are you sure, the problem above isn't a pure filehandling problem. Some > +relay,+dosfs debugmessage consulting should tell about that... Fairly sure, as the dialog says error while reading the help file. Running the command line wine --debugmsg +relay,+dosfs winhlp32.exe etax2002.hlp was not terribly helpful. It brought up two desktop windows, one with a Wine debugger and the other with WINE help. The Wine debugger window shows Unhandled exception: wait failed on critical section 0x400f9550 (loader_section in libntdll.dll.so) The WINE help window shows no messages. Re-running the same command line without --debugmsg brings up a WINE help window, but no help file and no error message. Trying to open the help file using file->open yields no error message and no help file. I'm unable to go any further with this at this time. I'll use the paper help for now. Ben.
