Ctrl+Sh
Ctrl+Shift+A will help you find the unit a type is declared in. Works
_most_ of the time. It is also accessible from the Refactor menu as
Find Unit...
I know, but you cant do it where the unit is not in the uses clause (or
where there are other code errors).
Hi
I know, but you cant do it where the unit is not in the uses clause (or

To be honest the whole help thing hasn't really bugged me that much. I
just find it ironic that a newer version of a product has weaker help
than an older version.

You can Ctrl-left click on the name of a function (in some source code
where it works) and it will open that unit.

Good point so the key is to put the unit name in front of the function or
procedure and then you can get to the help. Like you said system.readln or
system.abs gets to the content.

Hi John
My problem is that I generally type the word in code and press F1 on
it. Unfortunately this method of searching seems to me massively broken!
I wait for the automated updates that are 'advertised' to begin. Cant
wait for the help system to magically repair itself :)

Looks the same as you said to me - the Dinkumware link brings up a not found
error. I wonder what is supposed to be there :) ?
Using the left hand window to Search for READLN brought up only topics from
the Indy Help, but searching from the right hand window brought up

I thought there was something wrong with my setup but this makes me very
angry.
What a bad effort by CodeGear and how dissappointing.
I guess what adds insult to injury is that I can find all sorts of help
