All,
Based on the described issues with the Help, you may need to reset the configuration for the browser used by Eclipse. Go to Window | Preferences. In the Preferences modal box that appears highlight (but do not expand) Help. Select the appropriate browser for your system. If a Wintel system, select the embedded Internet Explorer Adaptor; if Linux select system defaut.
Then expand the Help item and highlight Help Server. It should default to a null or blank entry for host name and 0 port.
Try Help again with the revised or confirmed settings, and if that does not work modify these settings to reflect you host name and port.

Thanks for your reply. I seem to be having a problem viewing "Help". I get an
error message saying :Launching url http://127.0.0.1:1147/help/index.jsp"
using browser program "mozilla" has failed. Specify another browser". I tried
with both Netscape and IE and neither worked... Is there something obvious I
am missing?
Thanks!

P.S> i haven't tried google yet (just got to this today), but thought I'd
write to you in case you have some easy solution for me...:)
