According to MSDN (which is rarely ever helpful), Microsoft are currently "focusing [their] work efforts on providing a great Help experience in the next release of Windows Vista rather than on releasing an interim solution that is not integrated with the operating system" (although they say that a leopard never changes it's spots..), so there does not appear to be any documentation for the new Vista help as of yet. However, it appears that they are working to release documentation (at some point). However, the MS HTML Help 1.4 SDK docs can be found here Regards, --Perspx

BSoD during a Win98 presentationHi Perspx, I managed to get MSHelp working on the Vista Machine. I reinstalled Visual Studio 2005 SDK on the machine and everything worked like charm. However this is very surprising that there has been no articles or any help anywhere on the web for the same. Perspx I appreciate your help and thank you very much for sharing your opinions. Hope this will help others in getting similar issues resolved :)
