Hello!

How can I configure Office 2003's help system for the following:

1. I'd like help to come up as a separate window (as in the old days),
so I can alt-tab back and forth and not have a task pane floating
right on top of the documents.

2. I'd like it to NEVER go to microsoft's online help to look for
answers. I know this helps MS improve the product, but it's SLOW and I
don't have time to go to a web site to look for information that's
readily available in my pc.

3. I'd like to have the same options that help traditionally gave:
table of contents, index, and search.

Thanks for your help!

Alex

1. No.
2. Yes - disable the online help under your program's
Tools->Options->Service Options on the General Page->Online Help. Uncheck
it.
3. No.
