Confused about configuring help system

Hi,

I just installed the Visual Studio Pro .net trial and have been trying to
tailor the context sensitive help to how it behaves in VC6. I've set the
help system to external, but when I press F1 on say "CloseHandl e," I no
longer am presented with a dialog that contains the various CloseHandle
functions like I get using VC6. Instead, I get CBlobCache::Clo seHandle.
I then have to manually type in CloseHandle in the "Look for:" text to do
a search. Is there any way to bypass this step?

Incidentally, I *do* know what CloseHandle does; I just used it as an
example.

Thanks,
Brian

I'm comfortable in unix but have never dealt with DB2 Connect there. (my main job is as an Oracle DBA, and most of my db's are on Solaris or AIX) I've found the install...

So far, every book I have looks at on ASP.NET jumps right into creating a project. There is no discussion about setting up the environment, using a local IIS install (I think it can all be ran on XP now, right?) vs. having a development server, etc. I will want to eventually maintain several websites using ASP.NET and SQL Server and I have my own development box with W2003 server and IIS6 running.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
