F1 is very special in its handling. Delphi translates the F1 into a WM_HELP
message that is cascaded up from the active control through its parents
until a handler is found. I'd recommend looking into handling WM_HELP rather
than trying to subvert the normal F1 mechanisms that Windows and Delphi
provide.
