434.0. "Gold M and Help for CM SCE MLO VC are missing!" by WELCLU::LI (Sau Ha Li, Welwyn) Wed Apr 08 1992 12:57

    Hello,
    
    At the bottom of the screen for CM SCE MLO VC, I saw the message
    
    ..press GOLD MENU to see options, or HELP for more information..
    
    but both GOLD M and help are not available. Why is that ? Is something
    missing ? I was told that we've got the latest verion of ALL-IN-1 V3.0.
             
    
    thanks in advance,

434.1Appears to be an oversight in the codeBUFFER::VICKERSIf it helps a customer, DO ITWed Apr 08 1992 15:457
    I tried this on my copy and it also indicates that I cannot use GOLD M
    on the CM$INDEX form.

    I suspect that this is a bug.  I wouldn't like to get committed,
    however.

434.2Use of a generic Index formCESARE::EIJSAll in 1 PieceWed Apr 08 1992 17:1221
    
    Sau Ha, Don,
    
    In an act of simplifying (in this case reducing the number of forms) we
    almost managed to use only 1 Index form throughout CM, called CM$INDEX.
    However, later on we indeed found that in a number of cases the text
    used on the form referred to GOLD/M, which might not be valid at that 
    point. This was very late in the process, and we didn't manage to fix
    it (as it wasn't a simple text change).
    
    Within the CM SCE option, the following options will show the
    misleading text:
    
    	CM SCE MEO VC, SC and RS
    	CM SCE MLO VC, SC and RS
    
    These is a known (and reported) problem.
    
    Thanks,
    
    	Simon

    The absence of HELP in certain parts of CM has also been reported
    to Engineering.

    Andy,
    
    Do you mean the main CM help still ain't there?
    
    Are you sure that you have got a site version of help getting in the
    way?

    Mike,                          
    
    Nope not the Main help that was fixed in 123A (thanks)
    
    I'm referring to the various screens where when you press HELP
    you end up with a message like:
    
      10*      Missing text for subtopic CM$ETYPES                           
    
    At which point you are 'hung' and have to press CTRL-Y unless of course
    you are a customer who disabled CTRL-Y in which case the good old
    $STOP PROC/ID= xxxxxx comes into play.
