VBIDE helpfile
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. http://www.cpearson.com/Excel/vbe.aspx Although there are very good information on this site I'd like to have more than that. |

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.

When you installed MS Office did you do a typical install or perhaps a
custom install and left out the help files needed?

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.

Thanks once again Keith.
I do have the same thing in MsExcel. I am looking for help in the Visual Basic Editor (VBE) 6.5. I don't have such dropdown box in my VBE.

Finally found a way to get help in VBE.
here are the steps. 1. I press F2 to open the "Object browser" 2. I chose "VBIDE" in the libraries ListBox. 3. I chose one of the classes 4. I clicked the ? (help) button. 5. VoilÃ* We can close this entry. Thanks Keith.
