HELPFILE Property
Designer Only
The HELPFILE property identifies a user generated Windows help file that is associated with a form.
Note the following:
HELPFILE is a designer only property and may not be used in CREATE, GETPROP, OR SETPROP statements.
By associating a help file with a form, the designer is able to present a list of topics for the HELPTOPIC property of any form object.
Defining the HELPFILE property instructs the designer to perform a SETMODE *HELPLIB instruction to associate the help file with the form during program execution. Additionally the SETMODE *F1Help=ON is performed.
