| I can't get help in any of my office applications to work. I click on
Help/<application name> Help and the Office Assistant comes up. I enter
what I want to search for, click the search button and get a list of
topics. When I click on a topic link I just get an empty box. No help
information will come up. I'm running Windows XP. Can anyone help?
