You can use the online help in hosted (default) or local mode.

- In hosted mode, only a small portion of the help system is installed on your PC. The remaining documentation is accessible from a hosted location on the Oracle Technology Network (OTN). When using hosted help, ensure that you have set your web proxy information correct, if required. Refer to the Preferences for more information.

- In local mode, the complete help system (including all Oracle TopLink documentation such as the Oracle TopLink Getting Started Guide and Oracle TopLink Developer's Guide) is accessed from your local PC or intranet.

To select your help mode, use this procedure:

1. Select Tools > Preferences from the menu. The Preferences dialog box appears.

2. Select General > Help in the Category pane.

3. In the Help Preferences pane, select Local or Hosted.

   For local documentation, you must download the complete help system, then restart Oracle TopLink Workbench.
