The Help Topics command opens the on-line Help system in your default
web browser. Our help information is in HTML format, but it runs from the
CD or your hard drive, not from the Internet.
Using the Command
The Help system contains the Quick Reference tutorial material
(from the instruction manual) and a Command Reference, which
documents every command in MapCreate.
To open the Help system, choose the

You navigate through the help information just as you would any other web
site, using the clickable hyperlinks to move around.
