Impossible ? Why ?

Nico wrote:Impossible for me to extract Open_VS2010_help.exe in the zip, can you post the file only?

Open_VS2010_Help.exe

Thanks for info, luis. Changed it to ShellExecute with "open" command now,
as RunProgram() didn't work on Win8.1, like you said.

- New EXE (v04) is Open_VS2010_Help.exe and uses ShellExecute()
- Old EXE (v03) is Open_VS2010_Help_old_v03.exe and uses RunProgram()
- Source is included in the ZIP

DOWNLOAD: Open_VS2010_Help.zip (Open_VS2010_Help.exe only)


I need to correct a thing, because I was wrong:
VS2012 help is NOT compatible with VS2010 help!

In my case the problem has been fixed by adding the SEE_MASK_NOASYNC flag, "open" was not enough (doesn't seem to be needed really) -> http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtop ... 70#p430270

EDIT: Sorry, you said ShellExecute, not ShellExecuteEx, forget the above. Yes, with ShellExecute simply works.

Thank you for the clarification, I had some doubt about it really, and reading the H3Viewer's author said he was looking into it ...

As we explore the possibility of updating to VS 2012.
Please could you list your feature requests here below, no matter how minor or bizzare. Many thanks - Rob

... added to the doubts, but I wasn't sure so I didn't say anything
