- The solution to this problem was posted awhile back. I am reposting it.
-
- 1. Help doesn't function. When you select any of the help menu items
- you get the error message "This version of Help file not support."
- This is due to the fact that OS/2 is using an older version of
- WINHELP than Ami Pro currently supports. The solution is to get
- the DECOMP program from Lotus' bulletin board (I'm getting it soon
- and I'll upload it to ftp-os2.nmsu.edu when I get it). Now use
- the DECOMP program to uncompress the file WINHELP.CMZ which comes
- on your Ami Pro 3.0 disks. Simply replace all of the WINHELP
- files in WIN/OS2 with these newer ones. They are backwards
- compatible, so will work with your older applications' help files
- too.
