I was waiting for someone to reply saying that because I see it happening dozens of times in the list, but I guess it's better to start sending a patch them never sending any. At first I thought I would be hidding the problem too, but after checking windows does the same (doesn't open anything because there's no file) I thought it was fixed. > what seems (to be confirmed) to happen is that winhelp should better support > secondary windows as 'glossary' (or have fallback for those) as it does for > primary window (called 'main') (or support defining window name when opening > a file) >From what I understood from the source what happens is that WINHELP_GetWindowInfo receives the parameter "glossary" as name and hlpfile = NULL because the file was not found. So if the file was not found there's nowhere to look for, and in this case there can't be any fallback because it's a different file. > can you send me (in private) the relevant .hlp files (main one and > glossary.hlp) I'll have a deeper look > > -- > Eric Pouech > -- Bruno
