Cannot open Lotus Notes C API Documentation within Lotus Notes 8.5

I've downloaded the Lotus Notes C API for Windows version 8 and the documentation for it is two NSF files (1 reference and 1 user guide)
I cannot fully open the files within Lotus Notes 8.5.
I've opened the reference file and can read the title page, then I go to the parent view and I get many rows showing the functions etc in the C API. If I click any one of them to open it up I get 2 dialog boxes. (attached) 1) Cannot load form: [either func, Symb or Data] 2) Cannot load default form. then I cannot see the page that the link refers to.

When I try to view the user guide I get a similar error: I see one dialog box (attached) stating "cannot locate form chapter" but unlike before the page now changes to the correct linked page.

What is going wrong please? I really need to view the C API reference guide to view lotus notes events.

p.s. Is the v8 windows C API available in some other form e.g document or PDF rather than an NSF file?

Blimey. That was easy. Thanks Bill. I could kiss you (if I wasn't married with 3 kids!).
I've got another for you if you have the time.
