Why is there no help file with AutoCAD 2007? When I hit F1, I get "AutoCAD Message: Cannot find help file: acad.chm".
Anyone?

There most certainly is a help file. Must be your installation.

We installed it on our network server using the "complete" installation. Should we choose "custom"?

Do you mean that you created a network deployment? Or that you just copied the CD/DVD to the network?

:mrgreen: Cool... sort of a goofy bug, but, I'd seen a few other people have it.
