Help Text Missing

OK, Here goes with my third request today!!

Since installing the ISTS patches a couple weeks ago, I can't get into the help screens in either Evo or Classic. More accurately, I can get to help, but I can't create a seach database so unless I know exactly where to go in the help document, I could spend days looking for answers!

When it tries to create the index, it tells me "Unable to display the find tab (177)". Any suggestions?

Keep DBAHELP.HLP and DBAHELP.CNT but delete any others - probably DBAHELP.GID and DBAHELP.FTS (I think). Then open Help again and it should recreate the system files you just deleted and be OK.

You need to delete them so the program can make new ones.
