Yes, I've read the docs, I've read all of the stuff in the apple forums about deleting my Help Viewer preferences and cahces, I've even re-installed Help Viewer.app (someone suggested it would solve the problem, despite my skepticism).

The CFBundleHelpBookFolder attribute is defined in Info.plist, about the third key down. Placing it here has always worked in the past. I tried moving things between this file and InfoPlist.strings based on your suggestion, but no combination of differing placements works either.

As for not compiling, this is a good point. I've posted a new version that has the stuff it needs to compile:

When the "Personal Aide Help" menu item is selected from the "Help" menu in MainMenu.nib, Help Viewer.app comes to the front with a blank page. I need it to come to the front showing the html file residing at "English.lproj/PersonalAideHelp/index.html".

From <http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/OnlineHelp/ Tasks/SpecifyHelpFile.html>:


"Place a folder containing your help files in the Resources folder inside your application’s bundle. An HTML meta tag in must be specified on your help’s title page (the “AppleTitle” tag). Use Xcode to specify the two necessary Info.plist keys, which are CFBundleHelpBookFolder and CFBundleHelpBookName."

You have CFBundleHelpBookName, but not CFBundleHelpBookFolder. I can't test if this is in fact the problem, as the source you've sent does not build (it's missing a bunch of png images and at least one source file), but it seems to be the only thing missing.
