The Help Manager String List Record

To display a help message stored in an 'STR#' resource with the HMShowBalloon function, use the khmmStringRes constant in the hmmHelpType field of the help message record (which you pass as a parameter to HMShowBalloon), and supply the hmmStringRes field of the help message record with a Help Manager string list record. (The help message record is described in the previous section.) The HMStringResType data type defines a Help Manager string list record.

TYPE HMStringResType = 
RECORD
   hmmResID:   Integer; {'STR#' resource ID}
   hmmIndex:   Integer; {index of string}
END;
Field Description
hmmResID
Specifies the resource ID of the 'STR#' resource.
hmmIndex
Specifies the index of a string within the 'STR#' resource to use for a help message.
