Cannot view Compressed HTML files

[Lew Wetzel]

I can open the .chm files, I see the contents but nothing displays or
"Action canceled" in the display window.

Anyone have an idea??

Lew,

See if this applies.

You cannot open HTML Help files from Internet Explorer after you install
security update 896358 or Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1:

This was happening to our organization because our help files were
stored in a folder on a Shared Network Server. If you copy the help
files to your local computer, and then redirect the path from the
Server to your computer, you should be ok.
