That
is because it is supposed to be used only in dialog boxes, which don't have
max/min icons (or can be resized)
The
solution that I use is to have a Help Context button on a toolbar (like Access
and Word used to have). In the OnClick handler put this
code:
SendMessage(<form>.Handle,WM_SYSCOMMAND,SC_CONTEXTHELP,0);
This
changes the cursor into a help cursor and works the same way as the biHelp
icon.

Subject: [DUG-OFFTOPIC]: Border Icon weirdnessI was told that you couldn't switch on the biHelp border icon on, on a (resizable) main form.It turns out that you can have it on, but you have to switch off biMinimize or the biMaximize icons. When you do this, the biMinimize/biMaximize icon gets displayed anyway but it is shown as disabled.<screen shot removed for list considerations>It looks like a bug with Delphi and CBuilder as there is plenty of screen real-estate and no logical problems with having them all on.Any ideas for a solution? Does it still happen in D5?
