Missing (sub)help file in VBA editor for Excel 2003 ?

It all started very good at first. I opened Excel 2003 and its integrated Visual Basic editor.
Then (in opened editor) I selected the VisualBasic help menu and the help pane was opened
at the left side of the editor window.

Next I entered a search pattern (e.g."function" (without quotes)) and as intended
all content entries (approx 50) for the search were listed. When I move the
mouse over each of the items they indicate a link to a more details description.
So I clicked on some items but much to my surprise the sub-help topic was NOT opened/shown.

Why?

I assume that only the "main" VBA help files was installed. When it should step into
a specific topic the sub-help file is missing.
If this assumption is true: How do I install the sub-help files ?

What other reasons could be responsible?
Is Win2000 the reason?

Are the VBA help files really divided into multiple files ?
