Problem Title:
Windows 95: help fails with three programs within XACTstep 6.0 program group


Problem Description:
Pushing the [Help] button within certain programs (Symbol Generator, Memory
Generator, and Simulation Utility) within the XACTstep 6.0 program group
yields a warning message. The message is plainly stated:

Cannot find the C:\XACT\help\win32\\<program_name>.HLP

where <program_name> is "SYMGEN","MEMGEN", or "XSIMMAKE".


Solution 1:

The double back-slash is causing the confusion and is isolated to Windows 95.

Go to Programs -> Windows Explorer -> c:\XACT\help\win32\ and select the .hlp
file you want to view.
