Access 2003 Online Help - How To Disable

[Mark Lees]

Just installed 2003 and the help file sucks because it
tries to connect to Microsoft Online Help which takes too
long. When I run Access and I'm not connected to the
internet, it seems to connect to the locally stored help
files. How can I turn off the online help and just access
the locally stored help files?

Try this from Help MVP David Liske -- I can't confirm it because I don't
have A2K3 installed yet:
