Hi All, A while ago I got the WorkSet/2 package (gotta love those promotional deals :-) and just today got around to playing with it. I went through the tutorial fine, except when I got to the part about moving the cursor over printf and typing ctl-h (in EPM) to get help for it. Well, I was puzzled, since the install program had put the environment variable SET HELPNDX=DDE4.NDX+EPMKWHLP.NDX (or something like that) into my config.sys for me when I had installed it some- time ago. I played around a bit and finally got the online help to work by putting the full path names of the two files in question into that environment variable and restarting. For the record, I had installed to drive d, but left all other options alone. I don't know if this was a known bug before I found it, but if it wasn't, it is now. If it was, is there a fix (in the form of a CSD) I can apply to correct this? -- Patrick Duffy, duffy@theory.chem.ubc.ca "It's raining cats? You open the skylight, I'll get the relish." -- Alf
