The EA_ShowHelp event enables the Add-In to show a help topic for a particular menu option. When the user has an Add-In menu option selected, pressing [F1] can be delegated to the required Help topic by the Add-In and a suitable help message shown.
This event is raised when the user presses [F1] on a menu option that is not a parent menu.
