Err Msg: The Topic Does Not Exist. Contact Your Application... (149400)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Schedule+ for Windows 7.0
This article was previously published under Q149400

SYMPTOMS

When you access a help topic in Schedule+, you may get the following error message:
The Topic Does Not Exist. Contact your application vendor for an updated file (129).

CAUSE

Microsoft Windows 95 was installed as an upgrade over Microsoft Windows for Workgroups version 3.11. Windows for Workgroups 3.11 comes with Schedule+ 1.0, and it's associated help file, Schdplus.hlp, is located in the C:\WINDOWS directory. During Windows 95 installation the Schedule+ 1.0 help file is not removed.

Schedule+ 7.0 also has a help file with the same name, but is located in the Schedule directory. Therefore, multiple Schedule+ help files exist on the hard drive causing the above error message.

WORKAROUND

  1. Search your hard drive for all instances of Schdplus.hlp.
  2. Rename the extra copies. NOTE: The only copy that should exist will be in the Schedule+ 7.0 directory.
