Syntax

HRESULT GetHelpInfo (
   HRESULT   hrError,
   DWORD     dwLookupID,
   LCID      lcid,
   BSTR *    pbstrHelpFile,
   DWORD *   pdwHelpContext);

hrError
[in] The code returned by the method that caused the error.
dwLookupID
[in] The provider-specific number of the error.
lcid
[in] The locale ID for which to return the Help file path and context ID.
pbstrHelpFile
[out] A pointer to memory in which to return a pointer to a string containing the fully qualified path of the Help file. If there is no Help file or an error occurs, the returned value (*pbstrHelpFile) is a null pointer. The memory for this string is allocated by the provider and must be freed by the consumer with a call to SysFreeString.
pdwHelpContext

S_OK
The method succeeded.
E_FAIL
A provider-specific error occurred.
E_INVALIDARG
pbstrHelpFile or pdwHelpContext was a null pointer.
E_OUTOFMEMORY

DB_E_BADHRESULT
hrError was invalid.
DB_E_BADLOOKUPID
dwLookupID was invalid.
DB_E_NOLOCALE
The locale ID specified in lcid was not supported by the provider.
