However, the help feature doesn't work in any of the above.  The .hlp files are loaded into drive_c>Program Files>Microsoft Office>Office.  In Word when I click on "Help>Contents and Index, I get a list of topic, but when I select one nothing happens.  If I go to search, it says search not implemented.  If while in help I select help on help, it says "Cannot find "winhelp.hlp' (it is indeed loaded with the other .hlp files).  Do you want to find this file yourself".  If I say yes, it give me an "Open Box" showing folders in my home directory.  However, it doesn't show the dot folders, so I can't select files from the .wine folder.  I have Nautilus set up to display the dot files, but this doesn't carry over into the "Open" box.    Similar things happen for other applications.

I don't know if support for compiled help files  (.chm) is available yet 
in Wine.  I went looking for the issue in the Bugzilla that I saw for 
Wine 1.0, but could not find it.

Also, please post one entry for one problem.
