ENTREZ Help
NCBI
Official help pages for the NCBI ENTREZ system, but not bad - concise and light on the jargon

The Sequence Retrieval System (SRS) Manual
EMBL-Heidelberg, Germany
Official help pages for the SRS system, somewhat confusing set of framed HTML pages, mixes help for the user with help for programmers and sytem administrators, but the actual text of the user help sections is quite good.
