Wendy,

Thanks for the help system references. I'll take a look at them.

My question is very simple.

1) Does the Oct 2004 MSDN Library contain the complete set of documentation
that I need for VS .Net OR do I have to do something to restore the "Visual
Studio .Net" entry on the "contents" help menu? This is not clear from your
post.

2) If I have to re-install the "Visual Studio.Net" documentation, how do I
do it? Just reinstall product documentation from the Visual Studio .Net DVD?
 If so how do I do this without reloading the Feb 2003 MSDN library?
