Associating Help Text with a Menu Option

To associate help text with a menu option, use the Toolkit command Work with Menu (YWRKMNU) to specify the name of a help text document for the option. When the menu is displayed using the Toolkit Go to Menu utility (YGO), contextual help text is available for the option if the user moves the cursor to the option line, and presses F1=HELP. Note that users can also access this information by choosing Help Index from the Help action bar pull-down, then selecting the desired topic.
