Have you performed Help, Detect and Repair yet?

hello
I have this problem when I try to use the help in VBA (pressing F1):
when I click on any topic in the help window, i receive this error message:
"Error Starting MS Help";

I have searched (and found) the actual help file in C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\1033:
when I double click on one of the MS help files, I receive this error message:

"HTML Help Author Message: The file mk:@MSITStoC:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\OFFICE11\1033\VBAXL10.CHM::/vbaxl10.hhc contains an invalid HTML tag."

if I click on OK, the Microsoft Office Excel 2003 Visual Basic Reference
window opens, and I can search in it

It seems that the link is corrupted, can anybody help
thanks
Giorgio
