Ok, thanks Bonnie. Yes, I agree that the help examples are ususally pretty simplistic, but I kind of expect the code that is presented to actually work properly. :-) Since the purpose of Help is (supposedly) to help, I expect it to at least help the understanding of how to resolve the help issue. :-)

I will definitely look at this code and issue more so I don't stumble into this ditch again.
