hi, renee:

if you are using RoboHELP, the What's This? Help Composer (WTHC)
feature has default definitions for many buttons. (unfortunately, i
haven't found a way to change the default. has anyone else?) for
example, [Cancel] is defined as Closes this dialog without saving any
changes you have made.

you could also compare the What's This? Help in various
Microsoft applications. the definitions might differ, but it'd be a
starting place.

thanks, dee
