[DUG] UseHTML.pas strangeness

I'm using D7 and for several years I've been using a freeware unit UseHTML
which loads CHM files instead of HLP files when activating the help system.

 

As of about 6 months ago, in one of my programs, if I compile it without
changing any code in the main form, UseHTML doesn't appear to be used, and
pressing help produces a dialog saying the CHM file is not a valid Windows
Help file, which it isn't.

 

If I modify some code in the main form such as inserting a space and
removing it again, and then compile, it works!  I have to keep remembering
to do this otherwise I get complaints from users.

 

Any ideas why I should have to do this every time?

 

I had this problem with a different program a year or 2 back but it's not
doing it these days.  Other programs using the same unit are not affected.

 

Thanks,

Ross.
