I have just tried to use the help compiler (HC) that comes
with BC++ 3.0.  I tried to use it on the example (HELPEX).
I edited HELPEX.RTF using MS WORD 2.0, and I did very little
editing on the screen that has the bitmaps by reference.
Then HC gave me the error

Error R2055: File HELPEX.RTF is not a usable RTF topic file

This error will not go away.  I subsequently deleted that
help page in desperation but it still will not go away.
About half of the cross-references no longer come up green
and underlined like they used to, even on pages that I have
never touched.

How do I find out what is wrong?
