"operation is not allowed when the object is closed" error when using VBA online help -- Resolution

[TC]

Hey Folks,

While coding in VBA, I had been receiving script errors when attempting to utilize the online help from within the VBA IDE.

After fiddling with security settings and much searching for KB Articles as well as Googling newsgroups archives all to no avail, I finally discovered the resolution to this issue.

From within Internet Explorer, under "Tools" and "Internet Options" and "General", run the "Delete Files" under the "Temporary Internet Files" section.

For those of you who have ever experienced the Internet Explorer problem whereby "View" and "Source" does nothing, the above should resolve that issue as well.

Cheers,

TC
