Re: Is RoboHELP 4.0 really not supported by WORD 97?

["Warren, David" <David -dot- Warren -at- NEXTEL -dot- COM>]

     I wonder if Ms. Cascio either upgraded to Word 97 from Word 95 and
the
     installer neglected to delete the VBA librarires, or still has a
     program on her PC that uses the VBA libraries.  Either possibility
     might allow RH4 to function.

     FWIW, we're considering help systems, have an older v. of RH, and
Blue
     Sky *still* won't send us a demo. v. of the new RH suite.  At least

     Wextech's Doc-to-Help offers both the future potential to become
     Framemaker-friendly *and* works cooperatively with a shareware help

     system generator for the Mac.

     Please, no questions on this--no time this month...check out the
     appropriate web sites for more info.

How very odd.  I have version 4.00.040, and it's definitely not
compatible with Word 97.  If I open a project in Word 97, it tries to
convert the macros, which are all in WordBasic, not VBA, and then
chokes and brings up the debugger.

I wonder if there were two versions of 4.0, perhaps.
