Hi Sci,
i dont recommend doing that but here's a way i found out in favour of
you:

0) close all Mathematica
1) find the file "reference.nb" (on Windows to be found at: C:\Program
Files\Wolfram Research Mathematica 7.0\SystemFiles\FrontEnd\StyleSheets
\Wolfram\reference.nb )
2) open it with a text editor (and not with Mathematica)
3) do a find&replace for ALL instances of "Editable->False". replace
it with "Editable->True".
4) repeat steps 1)-3) for the file "core.nb"
5) launch Mathematica
6) open your help page on "ref/NIntegrate". happy editing!!! :D

And to revert to the previous state, simply go thru the steps in
reverse order (6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, boom!)
Good luck,
Dan
