How to open .chm file to specific page?

Hi!
I try to open chm file to a specific page, but with no success. "shelllaunch" allows me to do this, but only with IE, Firefox, Opera etc, but I just want to open Microsoft HTML Help application with specified help item highlighted and it's content displayed.

On video below I showed how 3dsMax does this - when the caret is near the name of a control and I press F1 maxscript reference opens the page of the selected control.

Can I do this with maxscript or not?
I searched the web for а solutions and found only this:
public static void ShowHelpByKeyword(Control sourceControl, string helpFile, string parameter) {
Help.ShowHelp(sourceControl, helpFile, HelpNavigator.KeywordIndex, parameter)

but I'm not very familiar with dotnet and do not know how to use it in maxscript.

Excuse me for my bad English.
