QUTIL Question

I found all the manuals in PDF form on the Cognos website.
http://www.cognos.com/powerhouse/download.html

Since these are "marked up" Acrobat style files, I find them useful - I can
have the book open in another window, and cut and paste examples etc.

They are easy to navigate, and it's great to be able to find something in
the index, and get there quick by clicking. Of course, I'm not sure if the
"single click" technique is proprietary or not :)

Since we use MPE/iX (what else?), we've placed them on our HP3000 and
exposed them to our developers via Apache/iX.

Regards

Neil

Hi John :)
    Thanks for your answer and to those who posted how to fix this
problem... Tho' this 'begs the question' if even Microsoft includes inline
help with their "zero releases" that are less than a few hundred to buy...
why doesn't Cognos for their cost?
