A while ago I asked for a missing CMDLG98.CHM file for some updated Visual BASIC Control... Someone did sent it to me... but... this seems to be just the main help-page... There's no information about properties, events etc... But... I found out a (better?) sollution myself... :-) I copied some excisting files and renamed them... Visual Basic 5 seems to accept this trick and because the controls are updates, all properties, events etc. will be the same Copy: WINDOWS\HELP\CMDLG96.HLP to WINDOWS\SYSTEM\CMDLG98.CHM I did the same to this one: WINDOWS\HELP\INET.HLP to WINDOWS\SYSTEM\INET98.CHM I guess this trick may also work with other controls like: WINDOWS\HELP\MASKED96.HLP and WINDOWS\HELP\RTFBOX96.HLP Success, Alex van den Berg Open Mind Productions
