Default VBA Help files - examples missing?

Alfred,

I have succesfully installed Office XP (almost). With the new Office, there
is no Examples in VBA Help. And where the references to examples and other
"things" used to be, there is just some blank boxes. Any ideas?


This problem is described in Microsoft Knowledge Base article 822989
(http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=822989). Unless you're a Windows
2000 user who has installed Service Pack 4, the solution should be to
apply Critical Update 811630, which is available from he

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=811630

There have been a number of reports that installing Service Pack 4 for
Windows 2000 *causes* this problem. The solution in this case is first
to run this command from a command prompt:

regsvr32 /u <drive:/winnt/system32/hhctrl.ocx

and then run this command:

regsvr32 <drive:/winnt/system32/hhctrl.ocx

The first command unregisters the HTML Help ActiveX control, which is
what provides the navigation features in the help files; the second
command re-registers the control. This should fix the broken registry
entries that are responsible for the problem.
