HELP
This section is designed to tell you what help is available when working with your
820-11. It is a good idea to read through this section so you know what it covers.
There are no practice exercises, but you can refer to the instructions in this section
any time you need help while doing your own work.
CANCELLING A COMMAND
There may be times when you want to tell the system to stop an action (like
reformatting or find and replace) or to cancel a command (such as run a program).
You can do this by pressing CTRL

U and then pressing the ESC key.
THE HELP KEY
The HELP key can be used while typing a document to bring more information to the

information about each of the commands on the Main Menu and Menu 115.
If
you
press the HELP key when one of the other menus (Ill through 114) is on the screen,
you'll see more information about the commands on that specific menu.
When HELP information is on the screen, you can touch the SPACE bar to bring up
more information. To remove the HELP information from the screen, you press
CTRL
&
U and then press ESC.
CHANGING THE HELP LE VEL
