When a user clicks the Help function in the presentation server main
window, VPLUS/Windows displays the Help menu, as shown in Figure 3-27.

The Help Index command enables a user to obtain information about a
VPLUS/Windows topic by selecting it from a topic list.  When a user
clicks Help Index, VPLUS/Windows invokes the Microsoft Windows Help
application and requests the index topics.  The Help application runs in
a separate window, as shown in Figure 3-28.

After a user selects a topic and clicks the mouse, the Microsoft Windows
Help application displays text for the topic, as shown in Figure 3-29.

To choose another Index topic, a user clicks the Index pushbutton.  To
return to the server main window, a user selects the File function, then
clicks Exit.

For more information about using the Microsoft Windows Help application,
refer to "Using Windows Help" in Chapter 2 of the Microsoft Windows 
User's Guide (SY06851-0290).

Besides the Help function, the VPLUS/Windows presentation server also
provides a help pushbutton for each dialog box.  When a user clicks the
pushbutton in a dialog box, VPLUS/Windows displays help about using the
dialog box.
