HELP!

I can't see any results from any Help Search that I try. There is a small
"tab" at the bottom of my screen with text "Search Results for blah" but I
can't see anything. I have tried various searches, many of which I know
would have results.

What's happening?

Thanks.

Hi, Larry

Let's try a simple example and see if we can figure out what the problem
is. Try the following steps

Open up VS.net 2003

Select the Help menu and click the Search menu option. This displays a
docked dialog on the right side of my IDE window.

Paste System.EventArgs in the "Look for:" field and hit enter. This
displays a docked dialog at the bottom of my IDE window entitled Search
Results for System.EventArgs - 500 topics

The Title of the first entry is EventArgs Class. Double click it to
display the topic as one of the main tabs in the IDE. If this does not
work similarly, try starting the separate MSDN app and see if the same
thing happens there.

Please get back to me and let me know what happens.

HTH,
