Subject:Re: Tutorials in Help. . . From:David Hailey <FAHAILEY -at- WPO -dot- HASS -dot- USU -dot- EDU> Date:Fri, 3 May 1996 15:08:24 -0600
Hi all,
I teach a class here at USU on developing help files. In a recent con-
versation with a friend, I mentioned that my students all wished that
there were context sensitive tutorials built into help files. I thought there
were examples I could show my students, but as my friend and I
searched through our memories . . . . . . . . . (accessing, one moment
please). . . . . . we could come up with nothing.
Does anybody know of an example of an example of a context sensitive
tutorial segment built into a help file?
And thanks for all of the information. If I watch this group long enough
I will always find all the answers (except which button to push).
