>I would like to use the What's This Help on a form. After specifing all of the WhatsThis properties, the "?" appears on the title bar in design mode but does not appear when the form is run.

Setup the following properties of your form:
WhatsThisButton = .T.
WhatsThisHelp = .T.
WhatsThisHelpID = nContextID 
* It depends on your help file. 
* In general you should set it to 0 (zero) for the form, so that it searches for ContextIDs of the controls. 
* See FoxPro Help for WhatsThisHelpID property
MaxButton = .F.
MinButton = .F.
* You can have one of the max or min buttons but not both of them together with WhatsThis. This is by design.
