It's me again. Ok, I'm trying to compare the screen shots in the help file
with the actual dialog boxes. But some of the dialog boxes originate from
look-up fields, and the help button on them doesn't work, so I can't access
help from them. If I bring up help first, and then try to pull up the
dialog box, help disappears. Any suggestions?
