About @RISK Guides

The Guides section includes documentation that is far more topical and targeted; the full User Manual, starting with @RISK, cover the breadth of features and functionality of the program. Guides, on the other hand, are designed to cover specific topics and provide a "quick start" for some of the more common features. These guides will cover topics such as Getting Started (for those new to @RISK), installation and license management, and the Developer's Kit (XDK), among others.
