The space of all f defined on m T (x y) be the Lebesgue measure is called -integrable T will -integrable functions on be denoted by Orlicz, [8]. Subsequent papers were L(). Examples of these papers are Cater, [4], This space was first introduced written to study different aspects of Gramsch, [5] and Pallashke [9]. In [6] and [7], Lesniewicz introduced the so called Hardy-Orlicz spaces H() for a given such function 9. The space H() was defined to be the space of all functions such that f e L() is the radial limit of some function f unit disc and belongs to the Nevalinna class N. g analytic in the open The relation between different H()- In this paper, we show that the spaces was studied by Deeb, Khalil and Marzug [3]. inclusion map between two H()-spaces is always continuous. given.

H() In this section we prove that H H() is continuous. Some other related in questions are discussed. THEOREM 2.1. exists.
