How to see help in contents?

Can anybody tell, how to access offline help dialogue box, which contains help in the form of contents so that I can learn AutoCAD systematically? I have AutoCAD 2013 & I have installed 237 MB offline help setup too.

Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the forum.

Doesn't F1 do it?

F1 gives the page, that attaches as picture in this reply.

It doesn't provide help in contents form.

Please help.

I think OP is looking to use local installed help instead of accessing the on-line version; this is controled in: Options --> System --> Autodesk Exchange --> Access online content (including help). Please note that this is from AutoCAD 2012, therefore may be slightly different in your version.

Hey MSasu,

I have tried both checked and unchecked the "Access online content", what you said. But it is not giving help in contents form.

I am attaching the image of "Microstation help dialogue box in contents form". Hope you will understand my query.

I need the similar one in AutoCAD too. Please help.

Take a look at this: http://www.blog.cadnauseam.com/2012/03/29/autocad-2013-autodesk-pulls-off-a-miracle-with-help/

Its a superb blog....

It clears my all doubts and show so many realities....

We can access the help in pdf files in content format from below link....
