I dont have Vista yet.  A customer just called me and tells me that he
gets an error message when my help file tries to open: that this is a
help file produced by an old Windows format that is no longer supported.

Thanks Microsoft.

Does anyone else have this problem?  I produced my help files with
Forehelp 2.95.  Does anyone know of an easy migration path to a
different (Vista acceptable) help system?

Hello Jerry,

I saw a discussion of this somewhere else.  They were saying that the answer
is to compile your help file as .CHM format.
