Hello all,
I have just upgraded to Office 2003 from Office XP, and I find that several
of the VB help entries do not seem to be present. The VB editor help
"Table of Contents" is as follows:
Microsoft Excel Visual Basic Reference
Microsoft Visual Basic Documentation
Microsoft Office Visual Basic Reference
The first entry is dependant of course on which Office app I am running at
the time - I only have installed Excel and Word, though I have ensured that
all VB options are selected in the installer.
Now, if I do a search for something like "MsgBox", the first four results
are these:
MsgBox Function (Visual Basic for Applications)
MsgBox Constants (Visual Basic for Applications)
vbMsgBoxResult (Object Browser)
vbMsgBoxStyle (Object Browser)
However, clicking on any of these does NOT open the help window and article
as normal - there is simply no response at all. No click, no attempt to open
anything - the hyperlink is simply dead. The same thing happens for help
entries such as "If...Then...Else", "Select Case", "Sub Statement" etc -
seemingly all the core VB commands. Everything else works fine.
I have reinstalled Office and also tried the repair option - the problem
remains. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Does anyone know which
file should contain the missing info so I can search to see if it is even
present?
Many thanks in advance for any help, I really do not want to revert to
Office XP because of such a basic problem (pun begrudgingly intended)...
