OK, good to know.

Turns out I hadn't done the upgrade beyond 6.6 at all, but didn't make a
difference in the symptoms. In actuality, it is the references to the
MS documentation for the Win API that isn't being found I see--the CVF
Fortran doc reference is directed to the disk copy, not the CD.

I noticed in the installation notes there's a mention of the df60.chw
file being built and of roughly 30 Mb whereas I notice the one one this
machine is now only about 18 Mb. If that rings any bells, ok; if not,
if I can't figure out what's going on in comparison to the earlier
machine on which all was referenced from the local disk, I'll post a
query on the Intel board...

Thanks, again, Steve, for all you do do...(and yes, I know it's your day
job) :)

CVF is not my day job any more! :-)

My Df60.chw is also 18 MB big, so it isn't the issue.

What does your tools/options/help system/preferred collection say?
Mine has "Compaq Visual Fortran 6.6 (20.09.2005.)"

Now, what the said date refers to -- I'm not sure; it is newer than
the 6.6C upgrade (2004). It's probably the time when I did the 6.6C
upgrade and/or installed it.

Try removing/backing up df60.chw and df60.col and reinstalling the
upgrade... something is fishy there, but I can't tell offhand.

Thanks, for the thoughts -- I discovered (I thought I had looked before,
but obviously I was wrong) that only the Fortran chm files were on the
hard drive and I couldn't get either of the installs to do anything
useful w/o uninstalling and starting over.

So, I did a copy w/ the "update only" option of the DOC subdirectory and
after pointing to the disk address it seems to have "stuck" in the IDE
now and to be functioning correctly.

I don't know if something went wrong during the installation or whether
I somehow unselected the choice to install the additional files, but it
seems fixed...
