Getting help for application programs

Some application programs that come on your PowerBook (such as the File

Assistant program) are documented in their own Apple Guide online help

systems. Follow these steps to see if a program has an Apple Guide help

system:

1 Open the application program.

2 Open the Guide (

) menu.

If an item appears in the Guide menu for your application program, choose it.

If an item does not appear, then there is no Apple Guide online help for

that program.
