    Missing links in HTML Help for VB 6

    Missing links in HTML Help for VB 6

    Windows XP 5.1.2600 SP2
    VB 6 (SP6) Professional Edition
    HTML Help Control Version 5.2.3790.2847
    MSDN Library Visual Studio 6.0

    When in the VB IDE, F1 or clicking the ? Contents on the toolbar, the HTML Help program runs. My problem is that the links to related items appears as a box with a dot in the middle. Not only to they appear as a box but clicking on them produces no result. This install (XP & VB6) has been running on this PC since June 22, 2005. Just the other week I noticed this error. I have removed and reinstalled MSDN Library, but no change.


    Link showing image of error
    the first image shows what it should look like the second the one with the boxes.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello, DanO!

    Do you have professional installed elsewhere, a notebook perhaps?

    I had the same problem, our family machine does not have the full version of MSDN, I must fire my notebook to have complete control. This may not be your problem, but look to see, just in case you do have a notebook and VB Pro installed, whether MSDN works there.
