Why can't I access VBA Help topics?
 
I can access all help topics that pertain to things other than VBA, but when
I click on a VBA-related topic, the Help window comes up, but no HTML file
associated with it ever comes up. So, basically, it always pops up with a
blank page.

I have re-installed Office 2003 Professional, gone through the suggestions
on Microsoft's website, including the one about going through Add/Remove
Programs, and I have tried selecting Internet Assistant VBA from the
Add-ins... menu, all to no avail.

Microsoft is really frustrating me! Somebody please help me!

hi,
you didn't say where you were trying to access vb help so i am guessing.
If you click on help in excel, you get excel help.
If you click on help in the vb editor, you get vb help.

Did you click alt+f11 then click help?

hope this helped.

I vaguely recall a security update issued sometime last year tha
disabled some html helps, but, late last year or earlier this year
newer update returned html help functions; therefore I ask, are you
security updates current?:rolleyes
