Hi
I'm a newbie here, and a newbie to Flare. We have just moved from V3.1 to V4 and I've noticed that my related topics and See Also (a links) are now appearing in a window rather than on a menu alongside the control. It seemed to work as a menu in 3.1, but I can't find a way to configure it in V4. I assume that it's possible as it is like it in the Flare help.
Thanks in advance.
Related Topics and See Also as popup menus not in window

Hi (and welcome),
This typically happens when there is a mismatch between the language of your help file and that of the computer on which you're viewing it — for example, when you view a German help file in French Windows, or a UK English help file in US English Windows. Microsoft says that this behaviour is by design (see the very end of http://helpware.net/htmlhelp/hh_info.htm).
If you're writing in English, you may find that setting the language of the help file to US English resolves the issue.

That seems to have done the trick. Thanks for that. I'm happy with my help output, just struggling a bit with the printed output.
Thanks again
