SYMPTOMS

A Windows Help file topic that has been formatted to provide a nonscrolling region does scroll.

CAUSE

A BUILDTAGS section was used in the Help project file to exclude the preceding topic from the build. The subsequent topic with formatting for a nonscrolling region will behave as if it was not formatted to be a nonscrolling region. In other words, the region will scroll.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Help Compiler version 3.1. We are researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

Formatting for a nonscrolling region is specified by using the RTF \keepn format or by using the "Keep Paragraph With Next" command in Word for Windows.
