Office 2007 online help not working in Vista

....the offline help is fine

I had a similiar problem with help in Vista, there was a patch available to
fix some XML problem. Could this be related?

This problem also stops me from sharing calendars online, though the
software DOES have web access as Outlook is able to send/receive emails.

Is this Vista RTM?

Yes, this is the final release Vista Ultimate that MS gave me for
beta-testing it.

As I said I had a similiar problem with help in Vista, it was something to
do with the XML files not being properly associated with the help program or
something. Someone posted a patch here for it that worked a treat.

Cheers
