Can't display old help file for Microsoft Script Control

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.scripting.vbscript,microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

I found HLP95EN.DLL on my Works 2002 Suite CD. It fixed the problem. It is
probably installed with Office and many components of Office, so few of us
should have this problem.
