One such version is the latest one - ver. 1.3. This little program asks you where you installed HTML Help Workshop and then registers all of the DLLs it requires. b>font colorMaroon>*New in version 1.1*/font>/b> - now includes support for registering the standard HTML Help runtime components (ITIRCL.DLL; ITSS.DLL; HHCTRL.OCX). a hrefHhdllreg.zip>Click here to download now!

Reinstall HTML Help Workshop and try again./font>/i> is b>somewhat bogus./b> Despite DLLs being registered correctly, the convertor DLLs will bring up this message whenever they come up against something they dont understand in the source files. One such thing that was discovered recently is the usage of an RTF token (font colorMaroon>b>\*/b>/font>) that indicates non-essential text to an RTF reader. One non-Word based Help Authoring Tool (HAT) emitted RTF that used this token along with the font colorMaroon>b>\footnote/b>/font> token which is b>absolutely essential/b> for WinHelp source files, but the convertor inadvertently appeared to ignore the \footnote token when preceded by the \* token. In any case, this little applet scans a WinHelp project file (.hpj) for a projects RTF files, backs up the RTF files, and then fixes the RTF source files by simply deleting the \* token when used in coordination with the \footnote token. a hrefHhcvtfix.zip>Click here to download now!
