Same problem here --- and no, none of the proposed fixes I've found 
work.  The DLLs are as registered as can be; and the RTF file doesn't 
contain the problems mentioned by helpfulsolutions.com.

Help workshop does include a command line tool (hhc).  But that will 
only work  once we have a working HTML Help Workshop project file, and a 
help sourcefile in HTML, not RTF.

I'm not convinced it's worth our while trying to use CHM.  If the fate 
of 32bit Winhelp is any reference, CHM will vanish just as soon as we're 
fully set up to create it.
