Robohelp Office 2000 CD

I'm new to these forums, so be patient with me if I post in the wrong section or anything, but I'm a bit desperate.
We own Robohelp Office 2000, I have the original CD with serial number right in front of me.
But the disc is very old and time has left it's mark on it. And now it cannot be read anymore.
We only noticed this now because we had to reinstall a PC that had the application on it.
After the reinstall we tried to use the CD but alas, no go.
I contacted Adobe support but they cant provide media that goes back that far.
So here is my reach out to the world, does anyone still have a working CD of Robohelp Office 2000?
And can we work something out with regards of shipping it over, or sharing the files with me/whatever?
I DONT need a serial number, this is not a call for piracy. I have a valid, payed for, copy of the application.
But only the media stopped working. And I need a way to get the application reinstalled.
If anyone can help us out we would appreciate it dearly!
I have an old application that makes use of this particular Robohelp version,
so an upgrade is not possible for us at this moment.
Thanks!
Bjorn.

Hey Colum,
Thanks for your answer. I already downloaded the trial version and tested the results upon upgrading.
Alas this will not help us out since the upgrade broke the old application.
We know we should upgrade/fix the old application, but there is no time at the moment ;-)
In the near future we will be replacing the old (vb6 still) application with a VB.NET one and then the problems will be over.
But for now I really need the old version.
Thanks for thinking with us, I appreciate it!
I hope someone comes up with a dusty, yet working, CD. I know it's a very slim chance, but I dont have a choice.
Bjorn.

  • RoboHelp Office 2000 and 9.1

    Just found my copy of RoboHelp Office 2000 and 9.1 and would like to install them on my new computer and get back to using the program.
    Two questions:
    1. Which of the above versions is the newest?  I realize that they are both quite old but can't remember which is the latest.
    2. Can either version run on Windows 7?  I am using Windows Word 2003.
    Thanks for any input.

    Hi Peg.
    RH Office 2000 came out sometime in 1999 whilst I believe that RH 9.1 came up afterwards. However neither would support Office 2003 or Windows 7. If you weren't using any Word features maybe you could get one version installed and running but if you had any issues, you'd be on your own as far as Adobe Support is concerned. If you can afford it, I'd strongly recommend you buy the latest version RH8. It is miles better than either of the versions you currently have.

  • Is Office 2000 compatible with RoboHelp 7?

    We are planning to buy RoboHelp7. But, cannot buy Office
    2007. Is RoboHelp7 compatible with Office 2000 (our exisitng
    version)?
    Thanks in advance,

    Problems -
    Currently, we are using Office 2000 and RH6. Now, we are
    planning to upgrade to RH7. We downloaded the trial version to
    check the compatibitiy. We compiled the exisitng RH6 projects with
    the RH7. It was found that pages with links are not displaying at
    all. We imported them from another project. But, some of then dod
    not work after that. There are also some special characters in the
    texts. We tried with Office 2007 and RH7. The problems were there
    too. Can anyone advice whether this is some bug? We applied the
    vailable patch. But nothing happened.
    Should we go for the upgrade?

  • Excel activex call changes between Office 2000 and Office XP. How does one manage that?

    I have several Active X calls from within a VI. One in particular is
    the Excel Cell Value property node in Office 2000. MS has decided to
    call it Excel Cell Value2 in Office XP.
    I have built and exe on a machine with Office 2000 and can run the code
    on a machine with Office XP, but I can not build on the machine with
    Office XP. I can also run a VI with that call
    on the Office XP box, but if I mass compile the VI I get the broken arrow.
    I guess I am confuesed as to why it can run but not compile. If the
    ActiveX call is not there for the compile why is it there for the run?
    If I can expect this does it work in reverse where I
    build on an Office XP box and run on a Office 2000 box?

    These problems you are experiencing do stem from the ActiveX changes between Excel versions.  When you mass compile LabVIEW checks to see if everything is linked correctly, including ActiveX portions of your code.  Since there are slight changes the LabVIEW compiler detects something is wrong, but cannot isolate the problem.  You might need to force a recompile of that VI.  Check out this link.

  • Report generation toolkit problem with office 2000 and office XP

    Hello, I am having a problem with running my vi after it is compiled with application builder. The dev machine is an XP box and the targer is windows 2000. I included _Excel Dynamic VIs.vi and _Word Dynamic VIs.vi from the office 2000 section of the install cd (for the report toolkit) in the compile but did not include those files for XP. When I run the application on the target machine (2000), the reporting functions call Excel just fine and the program does not come up with any errors. The program however, is not loading the approprate template and inserting the approprate data. Did I leave some neccessary files out of the compile? Thanks in advance!

    Hi Acer,
    The recommended procedure in your case is to install Microsoft Office 2000 on the development machine and then reinstall the LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit. When the toolkit is installed, it will check for the current version of Office and install the corresponding VIs to support it. The VIs include different ActiveX calls according to the version of Office. Therefore it is not enough to change the support manually without having the correct version of Office installed first.
    However, I would recommend that you just try to run your executable on a machine that has Office 2000 installed. The difference in the ActiveX API for Office XP and 2000 is not that significant, so your application might work perfectly on an Office 2000 machine. If you try to run the executable on a machine with Office 97 installed I'm willing to bet my right arm that you will experience errors.
    Good luck Acer!

  • Can I create an exe with report gen addon using office 2000 and run it on a PC with XP?

    I have create an executable using the report generation toolkit on a PC that has Office 2000. When I load the executable on a PC with office XP, It will not launch excel. Should the exe be compatible with either version of office? What do I need to do to make it work on both versions?

    Hi Budman,
    You should have created the executable in the way as is described here.
    On your target machine you have to use the _wordsub.llb resp. _excelsub.llb which belongs to the MS Office version of that machine. The different versions are on the installation CD of the toolkit.
    If you have these files in the support directory you do not need to create different exes for different MS Office versions.

  • No Adobe PDF menu in Office 2000 after installing Acrobat 9

    Hello everybody, I have an urgent problem.
    Preliminaries: I use Windows XP (SP3), with 2 GB RAM. Until yesterday, I had an installation of Adobe CS2 Premium. Acrobat 7 professional comes with the PDFMaker plug-in for Office, so I could create PDF files directly from Word... and all was well.
    But: yesterday, I installed Adobe CS4 Design Standard *without removing CS2 first* (after having made sure this was possible -- for the time being, I'll have to run Photoshop, Illustrator & InDesign CS2 'parallel' to their CS4 cousins, as I'm in the middle of a large project). I was aware of the fact that Acrobat is a 'jealous' program, and that installing Acrobat 9 Pro (which is shipped with my version of CS4) would uninstall ('upgrade', the CS4 installer calls it) the previous version of Acrobat. OK, no problem... or so I thought.
    However, I now no longer have an "Adobe Acrobat" menu or tool bar in Word (nor in Excel, nor in any other Office 2000 application). Apparently, the PDFMaker plug-in isn't installed (or doesn't work with Office 2000?).
    So -- what should I do? There's a PDFMaker folder in the Acrobat 9 folder tree, but I have absolutely no idea how to proceed. Is there any way to install the plug-in manually?
    And, if the PDFMaker plug-in does not work with Office 2K, are ther any other Office plugins out there to help me create PFD files directly from Word?
    Any help is highly appreciated.

    Just a quick follow up; I had seen several fixes that directed the user to click on the help menu, then choose "disabled items" then enable the pdf item...the only problem was that when I clicked on the Help menu, there was nothing referencing "disabled items"! In frustration, I finally called Adobe tech support, and the person I spoke with had me click on Help, then About Microsoft Office Word...lo and behold! at the bottom right was a button labeled "disabled items". Problem solved; hope at least one person reads this and avoids the frustration of looking for something in the wrong place.
    Ok, so it wasn't a quick follow-up...sorry!

  • Acrobat 10 comparability with Word in Office 2000

    I am still using Office 2000 (cause I like it so please don't suggest I upgrade to a newer version of Office) and having installed a new hard-drive downloaded the trial version of Acrobat X.  If I like it then planning to buy it.  When Acrobat X is installed, Word locks up during launch but if I remove Acrobat X (add/remove programs in control panel) then Word works perfectly.  This was not the case with an earlier version of Adobe on another computer (don't remember how many versions ago) but this feels like there is some new feature in Acrobat X that is incompatible with Word 2000.  The same problem happens whether I am using XP - service pack 3 or Windows 7 so I don't think this is an OS issue.  As background this machine is a Dell Latitude E5400 with an Intel P8700 dual core processor running at 2.53 Gig with 2 Gig of Ram.  Any ideas on a solution?  Does Adobe sell earlier versions of Acrobat?  Thanks,

    Does Adobe sell earlier versions of Acrobat?
         No.
    Regarding compatibility of Acrobat / MS Word versions; if using the PDFMaker installed by Acrobat you'll want to review
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/333/333504.html
    which address PDFMaker compatible applications.
    Acrobat 8 was the last version to support MS Office 2000 applications.
    Be well...

  • Acrobat 9 Pro w/ Office 2000 Observation

    Having installed Acrobat 9 Professional I find that the Convert to Adobe PDF buttons (PDF Maker) are no longer are present in any Office applications (Word, Excel or Outlook). They dont exist as available tool bar options. Reading the help file it appears that this feature should be available.
    Ive done a Repair of Acrobat 9 as well as a re-install. Ive also renamed the Word normal.dot file and re-booted. Nothing has helped. Reading recent postings and FAQs I find information about previous versions of Acrobat but nothing current. The print to Adobe PDF functions correctly.
    Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Isn't there a way (plug-in) to allow support for office 2000?
    Is support removed for office 2003 as well?
    (it is, I believe a wrong and unjustified decision to remove support for office 2000)

  • ITunes asking for nonexistent Office 2000 CD when syncing to iPhone

    A friend syncs his iPhone with his PC using iTunes for Windows. After a recent update, he gets a dialog asking him to insert his Office 2000 CD-ROM shortly after connecting his phone to his PC. Presumably the sync process is generating a need for some Office component that isn't installed, but he doesn't have the CD any more. Sync seems to work even if he cancels the dialog, but it's annoying. He's syncing only email settings -- not calendars and notes. Can anyone suggest some troubleshooting steps? Thanks!

  • PDFMaker fails to install in Microsoft Office 2000

    I installed CS4 Web Premium...no installation problems EXCEPT that the installer failed to install the PDFMaker in Office 2000 applications. I looked in the Help files that came with Acrobat Pro 9 and there are instructions for installing to Office 2003 and newer, and ALSO for Office Versions before 2003, including 2000. I followed those instruction, but was not able to locate the PDFMaker anywhere in the suite. I "repaired" the installation several times...still no PDFMaker. I would appreciate some advice here.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have used PDFMaker extensively in previous versions of Acrobat. It's an important component of my work flow.

    I have perused the forum for this issue and have repeatedly...and sadly...learned that Office 2000 support is not available in Acrobat 9.It also appears that there are no updates or plugins to fix this oversight. Therefore,  I would like to know if it is possible for Acrobat 9 to co-exist with Acrobat 6 Standard (where the PDFMaker works in Office 2000) also installed? Can I have both versions of Acrobat installed? I think this would be the preferred option, rather than installing Office 2003.
    Thanks...

  • Distiller 5.0.5 and Office 2000 - creating pdf not working

    I am using XP Home Edition SP2, Distiller 5.0.5, and Office 2000
    Can not make PDF with 2000 WORD or 2000 EXCEL.
    - WORD: file > print > Distiller results in the conversion hanging up.  The file can not be deleted from the print que until the computer is restarted.  I can not create a postscript file by unchecking the "don't send fonts" check box and check "print to file".  Doing so results in a "prn" file.
    I can create PDF with PUBLISHER if I create a postscript file by unchecking "Dont sent fonts", checking "print to file", adding "ps" at the end of file name, then clicking on the ps file, does result in a pdf file
    I can create pdf files with file > print > distiller in PhotoShop and PaintShop Pro

    After creating the PRN file, open the file in Distiller and see if you get a PDF. If so, then look for AcroTray running in the background. If not, then you need to start it (it is in the Acrobat 5/Distiller folder).

  • Migrating from Office 2000 to office 2003

    I know that the personality migration is great for upgrading OS versions. Does it work the same for application upgrades as well. We are going to be upgrading workstations from Windows 2000 and Office 2000 to Windows XP and Office 2003. Will the personality migration migrate the office settings from office 2000 to Office 2003?
    THanks in advance.

    Was RH installed on the PC that you are using with your logon

  • RoboHelp Office X5.0.1 and Office 2007

    Can I use RoboHelp Office X5.0.1 with Office 2007?
    Thanks & best regards
    Andreas

    Hi andreas
    And as a further aside, you can actually use RoboHelp HTML
    alongside Office 2007 as long as you aren't expecting to produce
    printed output or probably import from Word. But other than that,
    it should run fine and produce basic WebHelp and .CHM output.
    RoboHelp HTML doesn't rely on anything Word related (other than
    what I mentioned) to function.
    Cheers... Rick
