MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

The Word version 5.5 or 6.0 Help file (MW.HLP) is loaded into memory when Word is started, and will remain open until the Word session is ended or until Word is shelled out to the operating system by choosing “DOS Commands” or “OS/2 Commands” (version 5.5 only) from the File menu.

Keeping the Help file open throughout a Word session allows Word to quickly access a “jump table” so that the appropriate Help screen can be displayed when the F1 key is pressed or when the Help menu is accessed.
