Thanks. I thought maybe the general help box should be tabbed, as well
as the options box. I just feel that although standard, opening a
document to change settings and get help isn't effective. A more useful,
intuitive way is to access it through the "control panel" (in OOo this
is the QuickStarter) than from the documents.

Hi Caleb,
I answered your first post already, but for some reason it apparently

I like your idea of adding "OpenOffice.org Help" to the
Quickstarter menu. (But I'm not a developer, so I don't know
if it is possible) I suggest you create an "Enhancement" in
IssueTracker for that idea.
I'm not sure what you mean by "Options" though. Can you
explain your idea in a bit more detail for me? If you mean
the "Tools - Options" pages with the tree hierarchy, then I
can tell you already that those options are in many cases
application-specific and therefore must be opened out of one
of the applications (Writer, Impress, Calc, etc) and cannot
"stand-alone" like the Help viewer can. (i.e. Tools -
Options cannot be accessed via Quickstarter)
