I understand, but the dev machines are in a secure facility air-gapped 
from the 'Net.  So no "logging in" to anything from any machine with 
source code on it.   All help docs has to be searched at a local level 
only, that's why I was looking for a help doc search function that 
worked on the offline docs.

Thanks,
