Comments

If you use this macro to enable a standard Windows Help button (Contents, Search, Back, or History), the user’s next action may disable the button. For example, if you enable the Contents button in one topic, it may be disabled again when the user jumps to a different topic.

Windows Help ignores this macro if it is executed in a secondary window.
