Office: Cue Cards Overlap Help with View Topic Selected

Last reviewed: September 16, 1996
Article ID: Q121639

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Office for Windows, versions 4.2, 4.3

SYMPTOMS

In Microsoft Office for Windows, when you display the Help dialog box, and you then select View Topic, the dialog box will be displayed, but it may be concealed behind the Cue Cards instead of being on top of the Cue Cards as expected. This behavior is inconsistent: sometimes the Help dialog box will be on top and sometimes the Cue Cards will be on top.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, resize or move the top application to view the application underneath.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Office for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
