AccHelp v2.01 21st Feb 2006

Installation Instructions

Having downloaded or unzipped the file accinst.exe to a directory/folder of your choice.
Run the executable file accinst.exe.  This will expand the following files:-

acchelp.mde	The AccHelp Access add-in.
acchelp.hlp	AccHelp Help.
acchelp.cnt	AccHelp Help contents.

It also creates entries in Start|Programs. a link on the Desktop (which you can delete) and a basic entry
in the Windows Registry.

Now start Access and open any database.  On the main Access Menu bar go to Tools|Add-Ins|Add-In Manager
and click Add New on the Add-In Manager dialog window.  A file browse window will open.  Navigate to the
directory containing AccHelp.mde select it and click Open.  Access will copy AccHelp.mde to the MS Add Ins
folder and install it.  Make a note of the folder Access uses for its add-ins, you'll need it to tidy up
after Uninstalling.  This folder varies from Windows version to Windows version and user to user and I
haven't yet found a way to install directly to it.


UnInstall AccHelp

Open the Add-In Manager as above, select AccHelp and click Uninstall.  Close Access down completely before 
going any further.  Now use Windows Explorer to navigate to the Add-Ins folder noted above and
delete the file AccHelp.mde.
Close windows explorer.
Now use the AccHelp Uninstall in Start|Programs|AccHelp.  The remainder of AccHelp and all it's files will be removed.
