Hello all,
I have Visual C++ 6.0 Professional Edition and I had ti reinstall it when my hard drive crashed. The MSDN cd's that came with Visual C++ are now corrupted (do to my 5yr old little girl getting a hold of them :-( ) and I have no help system in the Visual c++ editor. I got a hold of MSDN subscriptions libaray for 2002 and it works great but I would like to know if there is away to link the MSDN help libaray to my Visual C++ editor so when I press the F1 key I get help on the highlighted text I'm working on?
Thanks for your time in this matter.

Sorry, the new (.Net) library is incompatible with the old tools.

You need the October 2001 MSDN library to integrate with VC6 - that's the
most recent version that's compatible with the VC6 IDE. If you have an
active MSDN subscription, you can download the 10/2001 MSDN library from
MSDN subscriber downloads (as a 1.19GB installer or as 3 ISO images to burn
CDs).
