Hi Sue,
I just posted this to the list under another subject line (yep, someone
broke the thread):
I'm not sure of the context here but how about "Assist" or "Assistant"? Some
programming languages out there offer an Assist mode that help "new"
programmers "do" the work.

>Mode. There are two options (radio buttons) that can be checked:
>Easy/Hand-Holding or Advanced. The Easy//Hand-Holding mode sort of walks the
>user through editing a journal format.
As I now understand the context, I think it would apply. Also, some apps use
a Wizard. Since it's a Windows product, maybe your readers will relate.
