Help Workshop HCW

[=?Utf-8?B?Vmlub2o=?=]

I migrated a project from VC 6 to VS2008 and the help files have trouble
compiling and are stopping the entire build. The error message says "Windows
cannot find 'hcw'. Make sure you typed the name correctly...". The hcw.exe
file is in the hlp directory as well as all the other hcw files. What's it
looking for?

It's probably looking for hcw.exe being available on one of the PATH
environment directories.

PATH environment for Windows itself - or specific to the project? I looked
around in the project settings but nothing jumped out at me...
