Is there something special you need to install to enable the Examples in the VB6 help file?

help

I've always assumed that the VB6 help was just deficient in that few (or no) examples were included. But it does have the link for Example in the help, it's just greyed out and not accessible.

Then I thought "maybe there's just something extra in the MSDN that needs to be installed".

Any ideas?
