How do I view Help content?

  • To access the installed Help from the SAP Business ByDesign studio, from the Help menu, click View Help.
    • If Microsoft Help Viewer 1.0 is installed on your computer, the documentation opens in your default Web browser.

    • If Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, SP1 is installed on your computer, the documentation opens in Microsoft Help Viewer 1.1, which is a standalone help viewer.

      Microsoft Help Viewer documentation is installed by default. F1 context-sensitive help is mentioned in this documentation but is not supported by the Help content for SAP Business ByDesign Studio Feature Pack 3.5.

  • To access the installed help without opening the SAP Business ByDesign studio, paste this path into "Start > Run":
ms-xhelp://?method=page&id=-1&product=VS&productVersion=100
  • In the SAP Business ByDesign studio, if you select Help -> SAP Business ByDesign Studio Help -> Scalable Solutions or Customer-Specific Solutions, the documentation opens in your Web browser and is displayed using the content player that is used to display the standard SAP Business ByDesign documentation. There is no search function in the content player.

How can I search for topics?

Microsoft Help Viewer supports full-text search. You can combine the following Boolean operators: AND, OR, and NOT. You can also use a wildcard character in searches by specifying an asterisk ( *) in your search terms.

What is the difference between Microsoft Help Viewer 1.0 and 1.1 and what is H3Viewer?

  • Microsoft Help Viewer 1.0... ... is installed with the isolated shell and with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 editions. It displays the documentation in your default browser. So really, the viewer is your Web browser, for example, Microsoft Internet Explorer 9.
  • Microsoft Help Viewer 1.1... ... is installed with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, SP 1. Microsoft Help Viewer 1.1 is a standalone Help Viewer. If Microsoft Help Viewer 1.0 is installed on your computer and you then install Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, SP 1, Microsoft Help Viewer 1.0 is removed from your computer.
  • H3Viewer... ...is a third-party tool developed by The Helpware Group that you can install and use instead of the Microsoft Help Viewer. The advantage of using H3Viewer is that it displays the full structure (TOC), whereas Microsoft Help Viewer 1.0 does not display the TOC. If you install H3Viewer, you can still use Microsoft Help Viewer. Download H3Viewer (MSDN)
