I'm only guessing, but you're probably wanting a persistent dialog that cannot go away, however you want the user to click on help for a field. I've wanted the same...
I've spent some time working on this problem. Here's what I found: 1) I posted a question about the helpbutton twice, no responses. 2) I went to the source (vc++60), and couldn't do it. I believe its a true windows "must" to have a close with the help. Try playing around in plain-old-windows things like the "Properties" window, eg, right-click on a file and click "properties". You'll see what I mean. I can, however, have the window with NO decorations (and I do use this on occasion). Anyone disagree, please show me the way!
