Hi all:

I am using Office Professional 2013 and I need to install offline help.  I've searched the topic and no answers come up.

I travel a lot and the planes and places I go don't have easy access to the Internet.  In other words, online help WILL NOT work for me.

Where is offline help located or are there additional downloads?  I REALLY MISS distribution DVDs and being able to setup Office my way.

Thanks,

rp

    I am amazed that people think VBA help is the same as the original offline Office help. 

    This why why tech support is sometimes lacking when we are looking for answers.  It seems the question wasn't read carefully enough to understand what the original poster/requester was asking.

    Unfortunately, this is a fail for my beloved Microsoft.  The whole cloud/online thing is great if you have continuous access or can afford (or your company pays for it).  However, not everyone is 'continuously connected' for a variety of reasons - security, location, cost, etc.

    I am considering as part of the approved software list for my next company to place OpenOffice on the list.  In order to use office, they will need a dispensation from the CEO. Not an easy decision, but something I'm considering.

    Please provide offline help - can't be that difficult.

    Please check following link for VBA offline documentation for Office 2013 developers:

    http://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=40326

    While useful, that is the vba help, not the Word help.

    may be too late, but...

    Not only too late, but too little -- that download is only the help for VBA (the macro language). There is still no offline general help for any of the Office 2013 programs.
