Displaying Help

You can display help at any time, and from any program. Help information is contained on a series of “help cards” in one large database that looks similar to the databases that you create in the Data program. Help is not specific to the program that you are using; wherever you are, you can just type a “clue” to search for the information you need.

Note: The on-line help contains more detailed information than is included in this manual.

∙To display help: Hold down Fn and press ‘/’ ; the key has “Help” printed on it.

∙To search for help about something: simply type your

clue into the Find: box, and press Enter. If the Quickfind button is selected the display will show a list of Help cards with the clue in the title or initial description. Alternatively, if the Find in all button is selected, the display will list all cards with the clue in the text. To move between cards, tap on the Prev or Next buttons, press Enter, or use the left and right arrow keys.

∙To show help for a particular program: type the program name followed by an exclamation mark, e.g. type ‘Agenda!’ or ‘Contacts!’ to only show help for these programs.

∙To look through the help text: drag the scroll bar on the side of the Help card, or use the up and down arrow keys.

∙To print the current Help card: tap the Print button on the Toolbar or select Print from the File menu.

∙To type in another search word: press Esc, and then type in the word to search for as before. To use one of the last five search words again, tap on the button next to the Find: box, or press Tab and select the word you want to use.

∙To return to the program you were using: tap the Go back button on the Toolbar, or tap the program’s icon. You can return to the Help card you were viewing by simply pressing Fn and ‘/’ again.

Note: You can highlight text in a Help card using the pen or keyboard, and copy it to use in a file of your own. Copy the text by selecting the Copy command from the Edit menu. Then go to your own file, and paste it in.
