       Running Expert Help (in resident mode) in DESQview.

       Expert Help can loaded inside a DESQview window in
       two ways.

       A. As a stand-alone DOS program. In this configuration, you
          would load EH into a separate window and toggle to it when
          you need help.

       B. Load EH in memory resident mode along with another program.
          when you leave the program, EH also unloads from memory.


       To run EH with a program inside of a DESQview window,
       as a memory resident program, use the following parameters.

       You must use a batch file to load both EH and the program.

          Example of running EH with the Brief Editor:

             Batch File Name: EH_PROG.BAT

             Contents:

                    C:\EH\EH -C
                    %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9

       Note: The -C Parameter will force Expert Help to load into
       Conventional Memory. You can also use any other valid command line
       parameter in the EH command line string.

       Set the Add/Change a program to the following Parameters:

    Note:
         When Running Expert Help the memory size should be set to
         a minimum of 128k.

         Before you close a window that has Expert Help loaded as
         "RESIDENT MODE BY ITSELF" you must first unload EH from the
         F1 / OPTIONS menu. This is so Expert Help can remove its
         signature from memory. (The signature is used to determine
         if Expert Help is already loaded into memory in a given DOS
         partition.)
