Filepro SQL Online Help

[AlanC]

We are running Filepro in a Unix environment.  About the only thing the Filepro user's manual says about FP SQL is that it has excellent online help.  It does not say how to access this help.  Since I am not overly familiar with the Unix environment, I have no idea how to find it.  Can someone give me an idea how I might access this help file?

Thanks.

The prompts are the bottom of the screen should include something like "F10 - Help".  Press the key that's shown to bring up the online help.

There is no key listed for help at the bottom of the screen.  I have already tried all of the function keys and none of them respond.

Someone from tech support was kind enough to send me a PDF of the Filepro SQL manual, so I am all set.

Thanks.

Apparently the on-line help is not available unless you are in update mode on a query. (note to Ken/fp-support - i don't think this should work this way!)

Press <U> to update after which you should see on screen bottom what key to press for <Help>.  For me on Unix/ansi terminal emulation it is <F10> - what key it is for you depends on what operating system and termcap/key mappings you have set.

OK, I can see it in Update mode and it is F10 for help.  I can't believe I never noticed it there before.

Thanks!
