I have a message box with 3 buttons: Yes, No, Help:

var result = MessageBox.Show("text", "title",
                MessageBoxButtons.YesNo,
                MessageBoxIcon.Warning,
                MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1,
                true);

I can detect if Yes/No buttons where clicked something like this:

if(result == DialogResult.Yes)
    // some actions

How I can detect that Help button was pressed and execute my own code?
