1.10.1.7.1. Help via Application Server

As of V12 there are two basic options to get the program help (with identical functionality):

  • Online Help

    This is the default case. No further action is needed. In the application, the program help is opened when clicking F1.

    [Note]Note

    By default, always the Appserver help is used.

    So the logic is this:

    • The key "Inethelp" is on 1 by default.

    • The key does not exist by default.

    pappclient.cfg

    [common]
    Inethelp=1 (Default)

  • Locally installed help

    If you want to force the use of the local help, the key "inethelp" has to be created and the value set on 0!

    And of course activate the local help in the installation routine.

    Selection of program help in installer (here exemplified with Consulting Installer)
