The Microsoft Advisor, accessible from within the Programmer's WorkBench (PWB) and CodeView environmentsThe Microsoft Macro Assembler (MASM) offers two types of online reference systems:
The Microsoft Advisor, accessible from within the Programmer's WorkBench (PWB) and CodeView environments
The QuickHelp program, accessed from the OS/2 or DOS command line
Both reference systems provide the same information about important features of the Professional Development System, including language-specific information and information about utilities like the CodeView debugger and PWB.
The first section of this chapter, “Structure of the Microsoft Advisor,” outlines the structure and contents of the online reference database. The second section, “Navigating the Microsoft Advisor,” takes you on a quick tour of the system. The third section, “Using QuickHelp,” explains how to use the QuickHelp program and how it differs from the Microsoft Advisor.
