Default VBIDE helpfile

In 2003 you have a similar option; On my 2003 PC I can click the help icon,
enter a keyword, and (since I have a helpfile installed) I get a list of
search results at the top of the Excel search window. At the bottom of this
box, I have a smaller area where I can search again. Just above that search
box there is a dropdown- what shows here for you? Mine is set to "Microsoft
Office Online".

If, for example, I change that drop-down box to only search "training" and
search for the Excel keyword "MATCH" I get no results, but I still have the
search box down at the bottom where I can re-select Office Online and get
results.

Are you using v2007, v2003, or a different version?

If you are using 2007, when the search window is opened, there is a
drop-down on the actual button that says "search". Look in that dropdown;
which item has the checkmark next to it? If you have a web connection, you
should be able to select "All Excel" and get help even if the local help file
is not installed.

I am not able to get help for any of the VBIDE objects method & properties
from the VBEditor.

I am always getting a "No results found".

Am I missing a ".chm" file on my laptop ?

On a previous Post, I got the following site to refer to.

Although there are very good information on this site I'd like to have more
than that.
