    Return: TRUE if the string was read, FALSE if not.

    Desc:   This function retrieves APPHELP details from apphelp.sdb. The database
            should have a valid index on HTMLHELPID. In addition, we assume that
            the compiler generated unique entries for the htmlhelpids. Tthat means,
            no two items have identical indexes. The logic to do so has been
            specifically built into shimdbc. If this ever changes, this function will
            have to be changed as well.
