Missing links in HTML Help for VB 6

Missing links in HTML Help for VB 6

Windows XP 5.1.2600 SP2
VB 6 (SP6) Professional Edition
HTML Help Control Version 5.2.3790.2847
MSDN Library Visual Studio 6.0

When in the VB IDE, F1 or clicking the ? Contents on the toolbar, the HTML Help program runs. My problem is that the links to related items appears as a box with a dot in the middle. Not only to they appear as a box but clicking on them produces no result. This install (XP & VB6) has been running on this PC since June 22, 2005. Just the other week I noticed this error. I have removed and reinstalled MSDN Library, but no change.


Link showing image of error
the first image shows what it should look like the second the one with the boxes.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, DanO!

Do you have professional installed elsewhere, a notebook perhaps?

I had the same problem, our family machine does not have the full version of MSDN, I must fire my notebook to have complete control. This may not be your problem, but look to see, just in case you do have a notebook and VB Pro installed, whether MSDN works there.

Hello all, I have an absolute positioned parent div, and nested inside it is an absolute positioned child div -- I mean the div *code* is nested inside, but the child is physically positioned so that it's completely outside the parent div (to the left of its parent, in a left-side margin area). The child div contains hyperlinks. Explorer 6 (on Windows) has no problem with this. However, in Netscape 6, the links are unclickable. I...

I found an interesting "menu", I don't know how you call it. It displays a link for 2 seconds, then it displays another link for 2 seconds, and so on. Here it is: http://www.alibaba.com under "Browse Trade Leads". I found that it doesn't work with major browsers (If you try it, please use IE, as it works only on IE, sorry). Do you know a JavaScript that does just that but is cross-browser? Thanks, --

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
