Help Topics

From this main help window, you can search for help in three ways.

• Under the Contents tab, follow the books to chapters dealing with such topics as Getting Started, or Problem Solving.
  
  
• Under the Index tab, select a keyword from the list.
  
  
• Under the Find tab, enter a keyword from a complete list of keywords. Similar to the Index, this method takes longer to find information due to the greater number of keywords available.
