Access 2007 - %^$%$ HELP Facility

D

Dennis

In Access 2007, when I access the HELP facility, it appears to take me to a
Net search (within the help facility of course). The "articles" shown usually
have little or nothing to do with what I'm looking up. How can I change the
HELP facility in Access 2007 back to the older style (like in 2003/2003),
where it only shows me local help as opposed to 500 useless articles?

Thanks a million for any ideas!

You can choose which version of the Microsoft Office Help topics you
want to see -- those installed on your computer as part of Microsoft
Office (offline) or the topics available on Microsoft Office Online.
To choose between offline and online topics:

In the main window of your Microsoft Office program, open Help.
Keyboard shortcut To open Help, press F1.


On the Connection Status menu, which is located at the bottom right
corner of the Help window, click either Show content from Office
Online or Show content only from this computer.
Now whenever you open a Help window from any Microsoft Office program,
the Help window displays content from the source you chose.

Hope that helps
