Nothing happens when I click on "Plug-ins" -> OnAlert->Help.
The ahp_security.chm is the same as ahp_smartmacros.chm
Any suggestions?

Don't believe there is anything there yet...........

There is a pretty good (but short) description of how it works in the wiki database

Here's a copy of the help file. You'll have to rename it from ahp_security.doc ahp_security.chm.

I have the same problem as Edwin. Nothing happens when Help is selected. I dowloaded the ahp_security.doc and renamed it as CLacina suggests. (I renamed the one that was there to save it) I can open it directly from Windows Explorer(and it's the proper help file) but it won't open within AHP when selected from Plug-Ins>OnAlert>Help. My ahp_security.chm that was installed originally was the same as Edwin's(for the SmartMacro plug-in, NOT the OnAlert)
Does anyone know how to get the help file to launch properly when selected for Plug-Ins>OnAlert>Help ??? I get no response when I select the Help button from the Plug-in pane or from the drop down menu. Help please! Thanks in advance for your consideration.

- Right click your start button (bottom left corner)
- Select explore
- search for: ahp_security.chm
- You should find two... the one you downloaded.... and the one in the AHP program files.
- (copy and) Paste the one you downloaded on the "old bad one" in the AHP files. Let it write-over the old files.

Unfortunately that doesn't’t work for me. But if it did the original file (which is the same as ahp_smartmacros.chm) should have come up when I go to plug-ins->on alert->help; but nothing happens when I click on that menu item before or after updating the file. I went through the AHP.dll with a hex editor and there are references to all the other *.chm help files except for the OnAlert so I assume this is a programmer error. :-\

MikEroNet it doesn't sound to me as if you actually have the OnAlert plugin installed. Call X10 (and have your purchase order info handy). X10 will glady sent you a new link.

I installed and registered my version. It comes up as registered when I start the app and all the functionality for it is available. On the about screen (Plug-ins->OnAlert->About) it says I have version 2.206 (Last Update 09-11-2006). Is there a later version then this? It appears to all work other then the help.

The latest version with OnAlert should say: 3.206
I looks like you probably made a typo.
Look up (http://www.x10community.com/forums/index.php?topic=10167.msg58678#msg58678) to get a copy of the correct OnAlert help file. It's attached to CLacina's post.

My bad, it's 3.206. I have the help file already thanks. I was just trying to see if I could get it to work within the application but it doesn't seem possible. Not a big deal since I can of course read it without the app.

Good point, it's been so long since I used it I forgot that the OnAlert Help doesn't work. Hope it's not too late to get added as a recommended fix (http://www.x10community.com/forums/index.php?topic=13550.msg77281#msg77281).
