My VBA Help is Broken (Office XP, Windows XP)

In any Office App (XP) "Help" works OK. If I go to the Visual Basic Editor (Alt+F11) the HTML Help page never loads. Sometimes it doesn't appear at all, or appears after another window closes--or maybe it popped-under?

Can I get my help back?

My first choice would be to have access to Office 2000 help also.
 
Have you tried to repair your msoffice install ?

Hope This Helps, PH.

Thanks for answering. That was the first thing I tried. Tried a couple regsvr commands too. Also updated to IE 7 and pointed the browser at the .chm files. Still no luck.
 
Are you sure VBA Help was installed in the first place? Installing VBA Help is not the default when Office is installed. It has to be explicitly installed.

I never did get the help "feature" to work in Acc 2K. Installed Office XP and all was well again. No clue why, as I tried everything...

The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese in the trap.
