N4.00: help doesnot display, HYPERLINK cannot open folders

[Deleted User] · 2005-08-24

HTML Help

When opening Navision 4.0 HTML help (chm files) I can see bookmarks and buttons, but the right pane with contents displays Action Cancelled or The page cannot be displayed. Other chm files (n3.60 etc.) work well. Also, my coworkers 4.0 helps work just fine. I tried tweaking the internet security settings; wouldn't do any good.

HYPERLINK

opens files and urls but wouldn't open directories (explorer).

Code

HYPERLINK('file://c:\tmp\')

or

HYPERLINK('c:\tmp\')

works fine in Navision 3.6, but fails in 4.00.

Anyone experienced similar problems, any known solutions?

I didn't test this, but try:

SHELL('explorer c:\tmp');

forget my previous post -- doesn't work :oops:

this seems to work:

SHELL(ENVIRON('windir')+'\explorer.exe','c:\temp');

There is an error in the "help file handling" in Navision.
If you open the help, move the window and you will see a dialog which must be confirmed.
I hope this will be fixed in the next Update for Navision 4.0

Howdy, Stranger!
