Alan. I hope I'm missing something, but I tried to run this and I get the
same link to the 'error opening help in windows' error. I went through the
original messages and find no reference to 64 bit win10. All I have up here
is win10 64 bit systems, so I won't be able to try a win7 install until I
get back to Florida. My question is, does anyone have this working with 64
bit WIN10?

Chris,

There is a way to restore the functionality of old format help files.

http://wa8lmf.net/miscinfo/RestoreWinhelp32.exe

It adds old files, no longer supported, but does work up through WIN10, 32-
and 64-bit.  Works fine with WiSP.
