SET HELP Command

Enables or disables the Microsoft Visual FoxPro Help file or specifies another Help file. There are two versions of the syntax.

SET HELP ON | OFF
SET HELP [TO [FileName]] [COLLECTION [cCollectionURL]] [SYSTEM]

Parameters

ON

Displays the Help window when you press F1 or issue HELP in the Command window. (Default)

OFF

Makes Visual FoxPro online Help unavailable.

TO [ FileName]

Specifies a Help file that is displayed when you press F1 or issue HELP.

You can specify a .dbf-style Help file, a WinHelp (.hlp) file, or an HTML (.chm) help file. Beginning with Visual FoxPro 7.0, if you issue SET HELP TO without including a file name, Visual FoxPro looks for the default help file.

COLLECTION [ cCollectionURL]

Specifies the name of an HTML Help collection to be used as Help source.

SYSTEM

Specifies that a collection name is used as the Help source.
