SYMPTOMS
In the Canadian version of the Microsoft Small Business Financial Manager (SBFM), when you use one of the Help topics under "Using What-If Scenarios" in Small Business Financial Manager Help, the following error message appears:

Cannot find the aapC.Hlp file.

Do you want to try to find this file yourself?

If you click Yes, you find that the Help file is not installed.



CAUSE
This problem occurs when the following conditions are true:

 You click Financial Manager Help Topics on the Help menu and click "How to Use Financial Manager." -and-

 You display the topic "Creating and Using What-If Scenarios." -and-

 You display one the following subtopics:

Analysis selling an asset

Analyze your cost of sales

Analyze your sales revenue

Analyze your AP, AR, and Inventory

Analyze buy vs. lease options



This problem occurs because this section of the Help file fails to refer to the correct Help file name.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, rename the installed Help file. To do this, use the following steps:


 * 1) On the Start menu, point to Find, and then click Files Or Folders. Then, search for the SBFM Help file, Aap.hlp.

This file is installed by default in the folder that contains the SBFM, which is in the folder that contains Microsoft Excel.
 * 1) Copy the file Aap.hlp
 * 2) Rename the copy of Aap.hlp to Aapc.hlp.
