Fletchie's control pak

[Brian]

Hi,

Anyone got an idea how to get Fletchie's control pak help file working - the one called IBHelpView

It needs some registry tweaks, I think, but I can't get it to run at all. The exe runs OK,
but it won't pull in the help file - ctl.ihp

The IBHelpView.exe file needs to be in the iwbdev/bin folder and I'm assuming that is where you have installed it.

Fletchie's program was made to run with IBPro
what it is looking for is a registry entry that  looks like this

Software\Pyxia\IBasic Pro\PATHS\BIN    REG_SZ   c:\iwbdev\bin

which is very  much like

Software\IonicWind\IWBasic\PATHS\BIN    REG_SZ   c:\iwbdev\bin

Larry,

Sorry, only just seen this. Still can't get it to work. Won't see the ctl.ihp file
when I do a rescan from the helpview exe

Any chance of seeing a text output from your Registry? It used to work,
and I do use it quite a lot. . . .

My IWBasic is stored in C:\Program Files (x86)\iwbdev\

Larry,

Got it now - did a Ctl Alt Del on my brain!
