Using Help

This is a very brief overview of the Help features. For further
information on using Help, select How To Use Help or see the
Microsoft Windows manual.

All of the methods of finding information on a topic produce the
same textual information. Choose the method most convenient for
you among those listed here.

Helpful hints:

If a term is underlined, you may select it to bring up a new screen
defining or describing that subject.

If scroll bars appear, you may use them to see more items on the
list or more information on the subject.

To return to a previous screen, use either the Back button (which
steps through each screen you have called up) or the History
button (which lists all the screens you have called up, so you can
double-click on the one you want to return to).

To see text on a related subject, use the Previous (<<) or Next
(>>) button.
