VFP helpfile

Author: Allen

Posted: 2013-09-04 06:06:29   Link

Hi foxgang

I'm trying to find out the location of the set help file. It gets set with

set help to but I need to see what it is. ? set("help") just shows ON or

OFF. I need the location.

Where's your "Hacker's Guide?" A quick Google brings up the Google Books

copy of HackFox6 with the answer on page 524.

In this case it was quicker to ask than look for it.

The problem is running the help file. The exe is on several citrix servers.

I have a help menu item and on startup the program looks for the help file.

If it cant find it in one of two places, it disabled the menu item. Well it

does not disable it so I am sure it finds it. But when the help item is run,

simple command "help", nothing happens. Works on my local system but not on

this citrix system. Help runs on the server if called from a shortcut.

My problem seems to be windows 2008 server 64 bit. Double click the chm and

its fine. Even a shortcut is fine. But called from a VFP exe with "help" and

it fails to run.

Any clues.
