Application Help Text

Hi all,

> We have used HLPDOC in our DDS to provide our system's help.  It would be
> great if IBM gave us some control over what happens when F1 is pressed.
> For example, if the user is using a 5250 device, we could provide help by
> some green screen solution other than by OS/400 folders/documents, but if
> the user is using a PC, we could do a STRPCCMD to pull up WORD.  Of course
> we could change all our DDS and handle F1 functionality within our RPG but
> this would be much more invasive to our application.  Has anyone tried to
> redirect F1/Help when using HLPDOC in DDS?
