You want to use browse sequences, a much-undervalued feature of 16-bit and
32-bit WinHelp.

You can even make a help system where the browse buttons are the *only*
means of navigation, so the user really can't "just jump around."

Any good WinHelp reference can explain how to set up and use browse
sequences.
