preview - opens help - opens webbrowser

Hi,

I am trying to configure PWB for public access.

If I click on the Print Preview Button, it and choose Help>WebHelp, it opens a new dialogue box which contains a link to a microsoft help site.

This site opens a new unrestricted browser.
How to I correct this so this browser is 'restricted' to only displaying the help site and not simply a backdoor for open surfing?

Thanks,

Gene

You can either use the SetPWB utility, found at this site, to make PWB the dafult browser, or you can use the wonderful little tool ManageIE (also on this site) - if IE does open, it will close immediately. Works great here.

You can also prevent the help button in the print preview from working by renaming the file "iexplore.chm" to "iexplore.bak". This file is usually found in the Windows Help folder.

i will give the renaming a try.
I know that the chm extension is for online help but what does the .bak extension refer to ?

Thanks

I usually use the "BAK" extension so I remeber that is was changed and I can change it back if I need to. Feel free to use any extension you prefer.
