Comments
 
Applications 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.
