This is because MS doesn't allow opening of CHM-files over the network. CHM-files are considered unsafe. Either you will have to change the security settings for the zone (not a good idea), use hlp-files instead, do a local installation of the program, do changes in the registry or copy the CHM-file to the local help directory c:\windows\help (best choice in my opinion). Here is some detailed info: http://helpman.it-authoring.com/viewtopic.php?t=2870 Lars Brange Paul Schwartzkopf wrote: >I am writing an application using C++ Builder 2006 that opens an HTML help file.

Is there any function(s) contained in Builder 2006 that I can use to do this, or are there any other ideas on what may be causing this issue? > >Thanks, >Paul > >
