RE: Novell won't let me look in the Help files

["Bennett, Stephen" <Stephen.Bennett@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Claus,

Can I tell CODE400 to us a particular browser for accessing it's help files?

Because..........
If I cannot get the proxy script changed

Then lets say......
I want to use MS IE as my internet browser 
And Netscape for CODE400 help, i.e. I have Netscape running with the proxy
script disabled........

So......
Is it possible to direct CODE400 help to use a specific brower?

The other alternative is for me to bookmark all the CODE400 entries in
Netscape...........

Best regards,
Stephen
