No Space Needed in "/O MY.SRC" in HELPMAKE, Programmer's Guide (60220)
This article was previously published under Q60220
SUMMARY
Page 673 in the "Microsoft Basic 7.0: Programmer's Guide" (for
versions 7.00 and 7.10) incorrectly shows a space between "/O" and
"MY.SRC" in the following example for decoding a Help database:
HELPMAKE /V /D /O MY.SRC MY.HLP > MY.LOG
Using this syntax gives the error ":fatal error H1100: cannot open
file." The correct syntax is as follows:
HELPMAKE /V /D /OMY.SRC MY.HLP > MY.LOG
The sample syntax given on the bottom of Page 672 shows the "/O"
option as it should be used.
This information applies to Microsoft Basic Professional Development
System (PDS) Versions 7.00 and 7.10 for MS-DOS and MS OS/2.
