Context-Sensitive Help

[ ]
When the user presses F1 or Help, display context-sensitive help related to the element that has focus.

[ ]
When the user is in help mode (as a result of pressing Shift F1, Shift Help, or selecting the On Item entry in the Help menu), display context-sensitive help on the element on which the user clicks the SELECT button, if it is in the same window in which help mode was initiated.

[ ]
If help is not available for the element for which it was requested, provide help for the control that contains the element, or for some higher-level grouping of controls, or for the window as a whole.
