HELP: Content Path
Content displays a title list of the articles or multimedia items on the Multimedia CD disc.
If the database contains sounds, pictures or tables, a group of radio buttons allows you to select the type of list you want.
To find a specific item, type a title in the text entry box and press the <YES> key.
When you perform a Content search, the program looks for a title that begins with your search request. If there is no matching title, the list displays the title that would follow your entry in alphabetical order.
If you search on the same text a second time, the search will continue from the point where it left off. For example, let's say you searched for "apple" and the list displayed "Arizona." This means that there is no title that begins with "apple," and "Arizona" is the next available title in alphabetical order. If you activate the text entry box and press <YES> again, the search will go to the title that follows "Arizona" in alphabetical order. The search process has already moved beyond "apple," beginning its new search at "A-r-i-z-o-n-a."
To browse through the titles, use the Field button <F3> to activate the article list and press the cursor key to scroll through the titles.
If a title is too long to fit in the list field, press the right arrow on the cursor key to move the additional text into view. Press the left arrow to return to the left edge of the title list. The scrolled title will automatically return to the left margin when you scroll to another title.
When you find an article you want to see, highlight its title and press the <YES> key.
Press <F1> again for more help.
Press <NO> to close this help window.

const UI_HELP_CONTEXT HELP_PICTURE_VIEWER = 0x0006; // HELP: h on the word "dog" will list articles that contain the word "dogs." The search function disregards common words such as "a," "do," "no," and "which."
If your search request is more than one word, the search might ask if the words form a phrase. Press <YES> if you want the search to find articles in which the words appear together. Press <NO> if you want the search to find articles in which any of words appear, separately or together.
When the search is done, articles related to your search request will be displayed in the article list.
To browse through the titles, use the Field button <F3> to activate the article list and press the cursor key to scroll through the titles.
If a title is too long to fit in the list field, press the right arrow on the cursor key to move the additional text into view. Press the left arrow to return to the left edge of the title list. The scrolled title will automatically return to the left margin when you scroll to another title.
