Hi David,
Interesting. I just tried this in PBWin 9 and it sure did hang. I don't
recall discovering this before, but, that may be because I don't use context
sensitive help. I just open the help window the first time I need it, search
on whatever I'm looking for, then leave help open so I can jump
back-and-forth when needed. I know their search results are strange in that
you can search for a specific key word and it will seldom be the first word
in the list. But usually a few taps of the first letter lands me on it.
Also, I tried it in PBWin 10 and didn't have any problem.
Regards,
Tom

I also use PowerBasic. I have PBCC 5 and PBWin 9. In the editor window I
often want to place the cursor on a keyword and press F1 for help, but
if there is more than one option for that word,PB freezes up. Have you
found any solution to that problem other than going through the long
listing of keywords on the help screen?
