The two following samples do well on Window'95:

(win:winhelp (pc:window-handle *lisp-main-window*)
         "c:\\windows\\help\\calc.hlp"
         win:help_index
         null
         :static)

(win:winhelp (pc:window-handle *lisp-main-window*)
         "c:\\windows\\help\\calc.hlp"
         win:help_key
         "NUM LOCK key"            ;"cubing"
         :static)

You need not do anything while using win:help_key - just pass a Lisp
string.

Sicerely,
