It may be the wrong place, but only because we don't know the answer!
Here's what I have found (Please don't ask me how to use this, I don't
know.)

-- WinHelp(HWND hwndMain, LPCSTR lpszHelp, UINT usCommand, DWORD
ulData); bool;

-- WinHelp commands:
constant HELP_CONTEXT      =  #0001,
         HELP_QUIT         =  #0002,
         HELP_INDEX        =  #0003,
         HELP_CONTENTS     =  #0003,
         HELP_HELPONHELP   =  #0004,
         HELP_SETINDEX     =  #0005,
         HELP_SETCONTENTS  =  #0005,
         HELP_CONTEXTPOPUP =  #0008,
         HELP_FORCEFILE    =  #0009,
         HELP_KEY          =  #0101,
         HELP_COMMAND      =  #0102,
         HELP_PARTIALKEY   =  #0105,
         HELP_MULTIKEY     =  #0201,
         HELP_SETWINPOS    =  #0203
