Other Forms of Help

Other Help Features in Tools and Products

In addition to the Help browser and help functions, some products and tools allow other ways for getting help. You will encounter some of these approaches in the course of using a product, such as entries in the Help menu, Help buttons in dialog boxes, and selecting Help from a context menu. These approaches all display context-sensitive help. Other ways for getting help, such as pressing the F1 key, are described in the documentation for the product or tool that uses the method.

In the Command Window and Editor, you can get help while you work. See Assistance While Entering Statements and M-Lint Code Analyzer. In the Current Directory browser, you can get some information for the selected file—see Viewing Information About the Selected File or Directory in the Current Directory Browser.
