#define INCL_WINHELP
 
HM_CREATE_HELP_TABLE
mp1 = MPFROMP((PHELPTABLE) phtHelpTable);  /* pointer to help table  */
mp2 = 0L;                                  /* not used, must be zero */
 
An application sends an HM_CREATE_HELP_TABLE message to a help window to set
the help table for the help instance. The system uses the specified help
table to locate help-panel IDs on subsequent requests for help.
 
Parameter     Description
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
phtHelpTable  Low and high word of mp1. Points to the HELPTABLE structure
              that contains the help-table information.
 
Return Value
 
The return value is FALSE.
 
Comments
 
An application can use this message to replace the initial help table of a
help instance or to set the table if no initial help table is given. The
initial help table is specified in the HELPINIT structure used when the help
instance is created by using the WinCreateHelpInstance function. This
message replaces the help table without freeing any memory or resources
associated with the initial help table.
 
The application must allocate space for the help table and fill the table
with appropriate values before sending this message. The system does not
check the validity of the help-table contents.
