I believe I may have come up with one of the most difficult questions ever. I have posted this question in numerous discussion forums and help sections. I have even contacted Microsoft directly and still, nothing. I will give it a shot here. I am having trouble linking the MSDN January 2005 library to Visual Studio 2005. I have installed both of them and for some reason, Visual Studio doesn't "see" the MSDN documentation. When I press F1 for help, it tries to connect online, however I do not want it to do this. I want to search through the local documentation. I changed settings so that it searches local as the primary, but for some reason is always trying to connect to the online help. Is there some setting that I am not getting right? Is there something else during the installation that I am not doing? -- Melon00 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Posted via http://www.codecomments.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------
