HelpButton Property

Applies To

Button Object, Buttons Collection, DrawingObjects Collection.

Description

Applies only to buttons in a user-defined dialog box. If True, then pressing the Help key runs the macro identified by the button's OnAction property. If False, pressing the Help key does nothing. The Help key is F1 in Windows and COMMAND+? on the Macintosh. Read-write.

Remarks

Only one button in the dialog box can have the HelpButton property set to True at any given time; setting the property resets it for all other buttons in the dialog box.

If the user presses the Help key in a dialog box that has no Help button, nothing happens.
