    So I edit the afxdlg.rtf file in ignorance and completely whacked all the tags and other formatting, and subsequently attempted to re-generate the help files. The upshot is that the help files are hosed. AfxDlg.rtf is auto-generated by the MFC AppWizard; is there a way to RE-generate this file?

      As far as I remember, the file AfxDlg.rtf is generated by the AppWizard, but leaves lots of places for you to modify. If you have totally lost the original file, you could create a new project like your current one, copy the file, and delete the new project. Then make a copy of it just in case. But why are you using the old style help compiler? Use the newer HTML help system. You get a better product, and if you have to start from the beginning anyway, there is not much lost. Shraddhan
