Hi Matt;

  Yes, this was done by Sybase when the old .HLP format was deprecated by Microsoft and Sybase moved to the CHM (Compiled HTML) help format instead. The new format does not support bookmarks. Thank Bill Gates for that one.  ;-)

Hi Matt,

If you have Internet connection on your development machine, I recommend getting in the habit of using the online help instead.  The most up-to-date doc is on the Website rather than the PB Help.  And since it is just HTML pages, you can easily bookmark it, share it with other people that may not have PB installed, use Google search to find things (applying "site:docs.appeon.com" parameter to your Google search), etc.

Best regards,
Armeen
