I have been trying to find the .toc help files to use with Delphi 5.0 and RBuilder 6.03. When I hit F1 while in a field on the report I do not have help information. Can anyone help with setting this feature up?
All the ReportBuilder help files are located in the \Delphi5\Help\... directory. The ReportBuilder help is linked into the Delphi help automatically when installed. I believe when you hit F1 in the designer, a registery call is made to get the path of the Delphi help and the RBuilder.hlp is loaded from there. Are you receiving an error of some sort or is nothing happening when you hit F1?
When I hit the F1 key in the object viewer for any item in the report I get regular help no report builder help. For example I highlighted "NoDataBehavior[ndBlankPage]" and hit F1 and I got "NNTP Sample Session help". The problem is the I get a blank page at the end of every report when I print and I was looking for help on this situation and that is when I discovered that I did not have RBuilder help.
When I tried to set it up from \Delphi5\help\ there was not a .toc file for report builder.
