Hi All,

First post as pretty competant on excel (for my needs) and manage to fnd answers to most things online or trial and error. However I have decided to move into the light and try my hand at VBA :eek::eek: and seem to have hit a snag early on with the Help function which I am likely to rely on as much as in my early days of excel.

I am running Office 2013 (only just upgraded from 2010) on Windows 7 and when I press F1 or click on the Help when in VBA I get the error below and then it takes me to a website that doesnt really help when I click ok.

If I am in excel then F1 works and brings up the usual help window. As a point of interest in VBA for Word, Access and Powwerpoint the F1 automatically sends me to a website without the intial error pop up, but still no Help window..... Am I missing something?

Now this message might as well be in Latin for all the undestanding that I have of its meaning.

I have tried various seraches to try to get to the bottom of this with no success.

Sorry I realise I seem to have waffled on for a bit now :rolleyes:

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
