[DUG] Limit Delphi 2007 help to "delphi" only

Sorry, pressed the wrong button - one of those days it seems.

Thanks John,

That asks me to remove Microsoft directories that I will want to use.

For example, if I press F1 on "ShowMessage" in my code, I'll get a choice of

1. Dialogs.ShowMessage Function - RAD Studio VCL Win32 Reference
2. IDocHostShowUI::ShowMessage Method - Internet Explorer Extensibility
3. ShowMessage Element [Task Schedular] = Task Schedular

It seems only #1 should show. I can find the others through other
tools but as I am specifically in Delphi, it should know only to show
the VCL reference.

Similarly, if I search for "Showmessage" in the DELPHI Help, it lists
many items, only one or two relate to Delphi.

What the F* can I do about it - other than removing Microsoft
directories that I will need when I come to do some Microsoft stuff
occasionally?

Steve
