Using the HTML Help Viewer

This online information system is a compiled HTML help (CHM) file; you

view it using Microsoft's HTML Help Viewer, powered by Internet Explorer.

The HTML Help Viewer is a three-pane window:

■ The

Navigation pane on page 7648 is on the left side of the window. It

contains five navigational tabs, for

Contents on page 7648 , Index on page

7648 ,

Search on page 7652 , and Favorites on page 7657 .

■ The Topic pane is on the right side of the window. It displays the selected

help topic, or the default help topic. It's the window you're reading from

right now.

■ The toolbar on page 7658 is the third pane, located below the help window

title bar.

Here are some tips on how to find more information when using the HTML

Help Viewer:

■ To link to another topic or a list of other topics, click the colored,

underlined words in the Topic pane.

■ If you use a particular help topic often, you can add it to your

favorites

list

on page 7657 .

■ Right-click the Contents or Favorites tab or the Topic pane for shortcut

menu commands.
