Most applications will include Normal Help , which provides a full-featured help viewer complete with embedded graphics and hyperlinked text. Normal help allows you to organize your help data in any manner; it has a single Table of Contents (TOC) page, which the user can access at any point in viewing help. Your TOC page should hyperlink to any other pages associated or appropriate (it depends on the information you're presenting). See the figure below for a sample of Normal Help.
Normal Help, like the other help types (see below), is also context-sensitive. You must define the contexts, but the help system will bring up the proper help page for the context. If the user clicks the help trigger on the primary window, for example, the TOC page is presented (by default). If the user clicks the trigger in a dialog box, however, the help page for that dialog box is presented.
