Summary:
When requesting help in Microsoft Programmer's WorkBench (PWB) version
1.0 or 1.1, the following sequence of events will cause the Help
screen text to disappear, leaving only the hyperlinks visible.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in PWB versions 1.0 and
1.1. We are researching this problem and will post new information
here as it becomes available.
