Updated June 10, 1999

A secondary window is a custom window that you can create and use to display topics instead of, or in addition to, the Help Viewer or a custom frameset. You can define up to 255 secondary windows, and users can display up to 9 of these windows at a time.

Note

• You can customize a secondary window to have the same features as the Help Viewer or to have fewer features.
