Database Wizard dialog. On the first page of the Database Wizard (Step 1 – Select database) operation of the Help button seems okay. With the Create a new database option selected on the first page, the Help button on the second page (Step 2 – Save and proceed) takes you off to the Writer Mail Merge Wizard help page, which isn’t relevant. With the Connect to an existing database option selected on the first page, the Help button on the second page always takes you off to the Writer Mail Merge Wizard help page whatever is selected in the drop-down menu of database types. I would expect the Help buttons on the second and subsequent pages to operate in a context-sensitive way, linking to a relevant help page. (I haven’t checked operation on the third or subsequent pages). Can be connected to bug#134169 .
Confirmed with Version: 7.4.1.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 40(Build:2) CPU threads: 16; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb) Locale: pt-BR (pt_BR.UTF-8); UI: en-US Ubuntu package version: 1:7.4.1~rc2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~lo1 Calc: threaded This seems to be a generic reference used by all "wizards" -> vcl/ui/wizard/Wizard Actually, using this as HID for Mail Merge is also a mistake. This is possibly the same explanation for bug 149224.
FTR if you open Base then the Database Wizard will show with the "Select database" page selected. Pressing F1 now will work because the widget that is selected is "Create a new database", which is in the "generalpagewizard.ui". Now if you click "Save and Proceed" and then click back "Select database" and press F1, you'll be redirected to the Mail Merge help page. Notice now that the "Create a new database" is no longer selected. The problem here is that when you click "Save and Proceed" you fall back to the general wizard widget in LO.

I'm changing it back to ASSIGNED because there's still some work to do.
