Resolved: question about chm help file

Supposedly, in recent versions of RJTE, if the .chm help file is "available", it will be opened for F1 help requests instead of opening the web page.
So I have 'RJ TextEd.chm' in my RJTextEd folder, but F1 does not open that, it just goes to the web page...
I can open the .chm file itself from Explorer, so I have the correct OS support installed.
Does that help file need to go somewhere else?? Maybe in a folder in the config directories??

TBH, I'm perfectly happy going to the web page for help, I'm just curious about this feature... :-D

I can open mine alright, provided it is located in \Users\pjj\AppData\Roaming\RJ TextEd\help\RJ TextEd.chm Please check your path and filename (before it was called TextEd.chm).

If you have the portable version, it belongs in the RJTextEd\Help folder.

Okay, that answers my question... it goes in the config directory, not in the program directory...
That's not where I would have thought to put it, but it works...
Thank you...
