Errors in HELP Command Documentation

ID: Q96349

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, version 3.0
Microsoft FoxPro for MS-DOS, versions 2.0, 2.5x, 2.6x
Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5x, 2.6x

SUMMARY

Page L3-559 of the "Language Reference" incorrectly states that the FoxPro for Windows-style Help file can be placed in a user-defined window or the main FoxPro window. This is true only if the .DBF-style Help file, not the Windows-style Help file, is being used. The manual incorrectly implies that the Windows-style Help file can be placed in a user-defined window or the FoxPro for Windows main screen with the IN WINDOW SCREEN or IN SCREEN option.

In addition, the NOWAIT option works only with the .DBF-style Help file. The manual incorrectly indicates that the NOWAIT option will work with the Windows-style Help file.
