Hi All, After installing VS2008 Express I have the following issue with D2005 Pro /SP3 help: At IDE startup I get an error: --------------------------- Borland Delphi 2005 --------------------------- Access violation at address 05FE77BE in module 'htmlhelp290.bpl'. Read of address 00000018. --------------------------- OK --------------------------- When I click help I get a dialog: --------------------------- Error --------------------------- No topic-based help system installed. --------------------------- OK --------------------------- Pressing F1 doesn't do anything Any ideas?

Article
http://support.codegear.com/article/35786
also deals with the matter and gives same
solution, although the issue is described
to be created by D2005 being installed
*after* .net is installed.
After the change, D2005 help works as before
and also VS2008 help appears to work OK.
