       I have a Base database form that I am editing the properties

      Below is a copy of what the Help  has for the /Help URL/
property. I have no idea what this phrase means: /Specifies a batch
label in URL spelling/. An example of how this works would be nice,
specifically the format used for the URL.


    Help URL

Specifies a batch label in URL spelling which refers to a help
document and which can be called with the help of the control field.
The help for the control field help can be opened if the focus is
positioned on the control field and the user presses F1.
It's basically an URL that AOO Help can understand: it can be a "UNO
Command", a help url pointing to a help file on the Online Help, a help
url for help installed by an extension, etc. See the example on

Thanks for the link. It does clear things up a little bit even if it does not make any sense to me because I know absolutely nothing about UNO. It seems that this property of a control would not be useful to anyone who does not understand UNO and perhaps BASIC. So, explanation of this property of a control will not appear in the documentation until someone who understand these computer languages writes it.
