AppleWorks 5 User’s Manual

Note

Whenever you open AppleWorks Help, you start the QuickHelp

application, which runs independently of AppleWorks. This means you can
open AppleWorks Help even when AppleWorks isn’t running. To do so,
double-click

AppleWorks Help

in the AppleWorks folder (in the Application

Support folder in the System Folder).

Using the AppleWorks onscreen Help index

You can search for topics in the onscreen Help index by looking through
an alphabetical list of words or phrases, much like using a book index.

To browse through the index, click

in the onscreen Help window.

Scroll through the alphabetical list, or type the first few letters of the entry
you’re looking for. (To see one screen of entries at a time, press Page
Down or Page Up on an extended keyboard.)

To go to a particular index entry—for example, if you’re using the index
entry in the margin of the manual to direct you to a topic— you can type the
index entry in the Keyword box.
