Default Excel VB help

I have managed to disable the input fields from the VB
help window in both the answer wizard and index tabs and
when I move the mouse over the fields get the resizing
display - does anyone know how to re-enable the field
entry.

Default Excel VB help

Dave McRitchie has offered this advice in the past:

Save your Excel. Look at the running tasks (in the task manager)
and terminate msoHelp. If that doesn't work bring down Excel
and then go back to running tasks (Ctrl+Alt+Del) and terminate
any Excel still running..

One other thing you could try is deleting everything in the Temp directory,
including any subdirectories below it. (of course close all applications
first).

I have had this happen twice (xl2000, win2000) and rebooting has worked for
me in the past.
