Easy way to Retrieving Specific Help Document in lotus notes

While in a lotus notes document, there may be a need for additional help. This action uses @Picklist to pull up the help view, the user selects which help document is needed, then brings up the actual document.

A simple Save & Return action button on the help doc gets the user back to their original document. Need a sorted notes view using a temporary variable assigned to @Picklist as the key. Found in the Worldwide Coutry Registration database.

Code:

REM;
“Let\’s get some help by pressing this action to bring up a view of the help file”;
choice := @PickList([Custom]; “”; “Help”; “Detailed Help”; “Please select a help document to review”; 1);
@Command([OpenView]; “Help”; choice; 1);
REM;
“Below places the doc in read mode”;
@Command([EditDocument]; “0″);
REM;
“Below closes that damn view and just leaves the doc open”;
@Command([OpenView]; “Help”);
@Command([FileCloseWindow])
