I pointed the API help file to WIN32.HLP (Help -> Select API File -> win32.hlp -> Open)
But when I right click on API and click 'Help on Symbolic name' 'Windows Help and Support' comes up and shows me 'Why can't I get Help from this program? '.
What is the problem here...I'm using win 7, 64 Bit.
(on behalf of the OP)
Solved it. It was because my system was missing one update.
Check the error details and solution here. Modern Windows versions have no more built-in support for the old Windows help format, so that needs to be installed explicitly.
Cannot display this help file. Try opening the help file again, and if you still get this message, copy the help file to a different drive, and try again.
