How to Restore HELP Menus?

[obillo]

I'm using XP Home. In Word and Outlook, the Help menus have have reorganized
themselves in unhelpful ways without any input f or desire from me.

In Word, any time I start a new document, I get a gigantic help menu at the
top--it takes up fully half of the screen. Of course I can click it away but
I don't want it there in the first place.

In Outlook I now get the same menu--and it's extremely slow to use. I used
to get a nice little fast-acting menu on the right side of the screen.

Any ideas?

Task panes can be placed anywhere on the screen. Grab the handle (top left
corner) and drag the task pane where you want it to be.

You should be able to drag the Help pane back to the left or right side of
the Word window. You'll notice when it docks in place.
