I'm updating some legacy WinHelp that also has What's This Help? implemented with it. I was wondering how others have merged the two - right now the F1 key brings up any What's This Help? definitions (if they're available) - but I was wondering if the F1 key should just bring up the dialog box topic in the WinHelp and Shift+F1 (or the other What's This Help? buttons) should bring up the pop-up definitions.

Would users get frustrated with Shift+F1?

Has anyone else done this?

Thanks,
Ellen-
