[This was sent once before but seems to have dropped into someone's bit bucket.]

 One method of forcing local Help information be displayed by default instead
 of the standard VMS library:
    $ define/system HELPLIB SYS$HELP:localhelp.HLB      !your local library
    $ define/system HLP$LIBRARY SYS$HELP:HELPLIB.HLB
 Instead of making a system-wide change, it could be done "/group" for
 the specific user group(s) involved.  (If the change really is system-wide,
 rename HELPLIB.HLB to VMSHELP.HLB and define hlp$library as VMSHELP;
 this way, the library list displayed by help will include "@VMSHELP" instead
 of "@HELPLIB".)

 Naturally, everything should restored to normal before any updates or
 layered product installations.
