 Hi Denis,

I have two parameters in a command. As of now the command works properly,
no problems. Now I want to define help for each field. I have compiled the
command as you said, still I doesn't work. The first help it takes as
Global help and field level helps it doesn't show. Following is the way I
have compiled the text in the panalgroup. Could U please let me know if I
am missedout anything.

Panal group text.(Just an experimental text for the command to check if it
works)
