FAQ for Sysbook Errors

The Problem

>        I am using CBT edition with an amendment to my
>        setup manager to correct the bug that did not
>        allow it to add the cbt30r.sbk to the other
>        compressed files as per technical support at Asymetrix.
>        When the files were compressed it did not give me the
>        error so I would guess the setupmanager worked.
>
>        I installed it on a friends (non-toolbook) machine
>        the installation went well...my demo came up fine.
>
>        The first screen which transitions to the next screen
>        with an idle handler worked great.  However, none of
>        the navigation buttons which were set up using the
>        CBT Hyperlinks worked.  (They did work and still work
>        on the version I run in toolbook on my machine.)
>
>        On scanning my CBT edition documentation I note it
>        says "be sure to write an enterApplication handler in
>        your application to confirm that the sysem book CBT30R.sbk
>        appears in the list contained in the sysbooks property, if
>        it is not, CBT edition extensions will not function properly."
>
>        I suspect this might be the problem as I did not put in an
>        enter application handler.
>
>        I have no programming experience, I am relativly new to
>        Toolbook and up to now have not worked with sysbooks before
>        could someone please offer me a non-complicated explanation
>        of sysbooks and show me a script that I could use to get
>        the CBT sysbook to run with my demo so the navigation buttons work.
>
>        Also, I would like to launch Video For Windows as an executible
>        file upon installation of the demo.  How would I go about doing
>        that?
>
>        Thank you in advance.  I appreciate your help.
