What's this? Help

"What's this?" Help messages in any of the following ways:
●
Right-click a control and click What's this?, and a pop-up Help window appears.
●
Click the ? button at the upper-right corner of the frame, next to the X, to change the cursor to an
arrow with a question mark. Use this special cursor to select a control, and the pop-up Help window
for that feature appears.
●
Press the F1 key, and the Help window for the currently selected control appears.
Context-sensitive Help
Press the Help button on a printer-driver tab or in a dialog box, and context-sensitive Help appears.
Constraint messages
Constraint messages are unsolicited messages that appear in response to specific actions. These
messages appear in response to selections that are illogical or impossible given the capabilities of the
product or the current settings of other controls. For example, if you click Print on Both Sides and then
change the paper type to Transparency, a message appears asking you to resolve this conflict.
