HTML Tutorial Files Missing--HELP!!!!!

[3D_PB]

I installed ACA 08 on my machine and for some reason I dont have the HTML files that the help menu looks for for the ACA tutorials. I found a place to downlaod the .dwg files that go with the tutorials but I need the actual Html file that displays within the help menu.

Is there anyway I can download these from somwhere? I can't reinstall and add the tutorials in the install because I dont have my original discs.

This is the type of file I am looking for circled in red with the question mark next to it. This was taken from another machine that has ADT 06, the HTML files are found OK on this machine. On my other machine ACA cant find this file to display in the help menu.

Nothin? ...also I beleive they are .chm files not .html but I'm sure you get what I am talking about.

If the last one you will need to run Add/remove programs and modify the install of ACA 2008 to include help files. You will need the disks to do this most likely. Download a trial or request replacement disks from your reseller.

Its the last one and I tried exactly what you said. lol I tried locating the specific .chm files that I need but could not find the one for the ACA tutorials. I searched that whole help file folder for the tutorial .chm files but no luck. I find every other topic in the help menu but no tutorials.

If someone on here who has ACA 08 could go to their help menu and go to the first page of the ACA 08 tutorials>>right click and go to properties>> and then go down to where it says Address: (URL) and copy that link and paste it up here I can find out what the filename of the particular help file I am looking for and I will be all set.

Go to the autodesk web site, if you look through it you will find the tutorials you're looking for in several languages as well as in metric. You can download them from there.

From the help file on tutorials:

Downloading the Tutorial Files from the Autodesk Web Site In order to begin the tutorial, you must first download and extract the tutorial files from the Autodesk web site.

1. Open your browser, and enter the following URL: http://www.autodesk.com/autocadarchitecture-tutorials
2. Download the desired tutorial zip file.
3. Follow the steps in the corresponding readme.txt file to extract the contents of the tutorial zip file to your hard drive.

The extract procedure will overwrite this Help page with a new page containing information on how to use the tutorials, and adds the tutorials to your online Help system.
