Hi,

I have recently upgrade a windows 2003 server to sp1 and have found that I
have a problem with chm files that are opened from a network drive or
resource.
The following article explains this and gives suggestions on a resolution.
However the article talks about topics missing not the content pages not
displaying.

When I copy the file from the network drive to the local desktop the chm
file opens fine and displays correctly.

Can anyone explain why this doesn;t work its driving me nuts.

Thanks,
Andy
