Using Online Help

The context-sensitive online Help system includes Help topics that provide step-by-step instructions and reference information. Help can be accessed by clicking the Help icon in the upper right-hand corner of any HLC page.

Depending on which page you are on when you access the Help, a topic relevant to where you are in the HLC will display. From any topic in the Help system, you may access any of the five main areas/features of the Help:

• Contents

• Index

• Search

• Glossary

• Print

Contents

The Contents tab presents the online Help system grouped in a series of books in an outline format. Clicking a book opens it to reveal all topics it contains. Clicking a topic displays it in the right-hand panel of the Help system. Clicking a book again will close it in order to collapse all of the topics back into the book.

Index

The Index tab contains a list of hyperlinked keywords. Clicking a keyword dis­plays all topics that contain the selected keyword. You may also search for a keyword by typing it into the Type in the keyword to find box (or typing a portion of the keyword). As you type, the closest matching keyword is highlighted. Clicking a topic displays it in the right-hand panel of the Help system.

Search

The Search tab enables entering search terms into the Type in the word(s) to search for box and pressing Enter. A list of matching topics appears beneath the Search box. Clicking a topic displays it in the right-hand panel of the Help system.

Glossary

The Glossary tab contains a list of words, each accompanied by the definition. Clicking a word displays its definition at the bottom of the glossary panel.

Print

The Print tab enables printing the current topic that is displayed in the Help sys­tem. Click the Print tab to bring up the Print window, where you can specify your printer set­tings.
