Dear all,

After compiling JavaHelp with RoboHelp for Word I get the following message:
'Please install the latest version of JavaHelp'

I tried a lot of things but I didn't succeeded.
-copying the JH2.0 folder to many related dir's.
-copying the content of JH.2.0 (BIN/LIB) to related dir's.
-installing/reinstalling JDK, SDK, JRE...
-reÔnstalling robohelp
-attempt to define the necessary variables (PATH, JHHOME,...)

Can someone tell me how to install JavaHelp properly?


(PS I use word 2003)

What I know is in that topic. I would suggest you sit down with a developer or someone with more knowledge of this area.

Hi Peter,

Thank you for your quick response.
Your website is not new for me. I tried to solve the problem by executing the 9 steps you describe: http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/javahelp/javahelp.htm...
But unfortunately, without any luck.
I don't know what the problem is, I guess maybe something with:
-The location of the JavaHelp BIN and LIB folder. There is no executable, no installer? Where do I need to save these folders? Do I need to add them to another folder?
-The environment variables: I created two new variables (JHHOME and JAVA_HOME). I added both of them to the PATH variable by adding something like: "%JHHOME%C:\SUN;" Is that correct?
-Installation of the SDK folder?
-Versions of the Java software? I installed: JDK1.6.0_03, JH2.0, JRE1.6.0_03

Greets,
Raf

Welcome to the forum

I cannot help you with installing it for RoboHelp for Word but there is information about making it with RoboHelp HTML on my site.

Maybe you can adapt that.
