Re: [DQSD-Users] finding text inside the help file

[SGP]

Glenn and Monty,

thanks for the tip. I checked qsfind and got hooked!

One suggestion: add a brief explanation of qsfind in the first 20 lines of the help file, where there is a higher chance that newbies like me will check it out right away and memorize it.

Try typing

 

? <searchstring>

 

in the box where <searchstring> is the string you are looking for which is related to the search.  ? is an alias for qsfind.

 

Also, there are two links above the categories - 'expand all' and 'collapse all' -- which I put there for the exact purpose of searching the entire help file.  If those aren't there, you've got an old, old version.

 

The ? (qsfind) is so helpful for me that I hardly ever open the help window anymore.

Subject: [DQSD-Users] finding text inside the help file

In my wish list: There are so many searches that I find it impossible to remember them all, so I keep going back to the help file and pressing CTRL+F to open IE's find dialog. Most of the times can't find the search text I keyed in, even though it is in the help file, unless I manually expand all categories before CTRL+F. Can someone improve usability for help file searches? Here's a suggestion. In the help page, add a button to expand all categories at once, or preferably add a button to both expand all categories and then invoke IE's find dialog.
