WhatsThisMode Method

           

Causes the mouse pointer to change to the What's This pointer and prepares the application to display Help on a selected object. This method exists on the Macintosh, but there is no pointer functionality.

Syntax

object.WhatsThisMode

The object placeholder represents an object expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list. If object is omitted, the UserForm with the focus is assumed to be object.

Remarks

Executing the WhatsThisMode method places the application in the same state as clicking the What's This button on the title bar. The mouse pointer changes to the What's This pointer. When the user clicks an object, the WhatsThisHelpID property of the clicked object is used to invoke the context-sensitive Help.
