Bill,

The "unblock" issue is not specific to this CHM file, this is an issue associated with OS/IE security and any downloaded CHM file. If you look on Rick Strahl's blog he has pointed to several resources to solve this problem:

Rick Strahl's fix for downloaded CHMs

So the problem with the unblocking would happen whether this was a good help file (content, layout and functionality) or not.

fdbozzo,

I agree with the issues of the search tab, it has to do with complex searching being turned on if I remember correctly.

As to the bold parameters: I agree with your point, but it is a cosmetic issue triggering a usability problem for you.

In a telephone call with YAG, he mentioned to unblock the file with the method listed over at http://www.craigberntson.com/blog/2008/04/new-vfp-help-file-available.asp .

I don’t have any unblock option. I think the download should be pulled, and totally reworked.

- The bold parameters is not a cosmetic problem, it causes a usability problem, that is a bit serious
- The searh tab is just an editbox and a button! Where are the clickable columns in the results and all the other options in that tab?
