I cannot get my Excel Help window to appear.  Selecting "Help" from the 
"Window" menu puts the spreadsheet in the background and Excel TRIES to 
bring the help window up, but nothing appears.  If I press <command> <w> 
to close the window, the "invisible" help window goes away and the 
spreadsheet appears as the frontmost window.

I suspect an INIT conflict and am wondering if someone can offer some 
advice on potentially poor inits for Excel.

BTW, does MS offer any technical support?  E-mail, AppleLink, dare I say 
it?  Ok, "A body on a phone?"  Am I totally missing something from the 
manual?

Thanks for any advice/help!
