information does not appear in the contents frame, then you will that this item has
subtopics, and you should now find its subtopics below it in the tree view.

navigate to the Search edit field. Press Enter to start "forms mode" and then type in a search term. Press Enter
again to exit "forms mode". A list of links will appear in the navigation frame that relate to your search term.

On the search page, you may find it necessary to have Window-Eyes redraw
the search screen. To do this, press Insert+Backslash.
