Eros,
when I click on the links to open the TBGL and TBEM helpfile from within the TB helpfile, nothing happens.

I think it is not working in What's new.
Can you please check in
help/thinBasic modules/TBGL/
or
help/thinBasic modules/TBEM/
pages and click on the link at the bottom stating "TBGL Help file" or "TBEM Help file" and see if it works? You should get new window with help.
I'm waiting for confirmation.
Thanks
Eros

Maybe direct links related to your harddrive structure?

I do not know if it helps,
but I have thinBasic installed not under C:\thinbasic but under E:\util\thinBasic.

Ok, I was able to replicate the problem on a company computer.
Now I'm searching for a solution.

Could be thing of service pack?
I have SP2 and all updates before SP3.

Yes, it is or can be.
Can you please use attached new help file (substitute the one you have), go to TBGL module help page and click on the new button.
Let me know if it makes any difference.
Thanks

Thanks Eros,
the problem is...
When I click thinbasic.chm, seek TBGL module, click button - it starts help file ok!
When I start thinAir, open help from there using Help / Offline help, seek TBGL module, click button - it fails again :(
In my opinion it has to do something with current directory.

Ok I got it.
But this is a complete different matter. In help I cannot hard code full or relative path because it depends on where you have thinBasic installed. Maybe thinAir can change current directory when it invokes help. I have to talk with Roberto.
Ciao.
