I want to display a link to help in a message box. By default the text is displayed as a non-selectable string.

MsgBox does not allow hyperlinks, just plain text. Thus, here is a workaround that should work alright. Make the Label blue ( ForeColor ) and underlined ( Font ) so it looks like a typical hyperlink. Specify the cursor file for the Label's MouseIcon image (if you have one).
The Links property a type of LinkCollection represents all the hyperlinks available in a LinkLabel control. The Add method of LinkColleciton is used to add a link to the collection. The Remove and RemoveAt methods are used to remove a link from the LinkCollection.
MessageBox is a class in C# and Show is a method that displays a message in a small window in the center of the Form. MessageBox is used to provide confirmations of a task being done or to provide warnings before a task is done. Create a Windows Forms app in Visual Studio and add a button on it.
One option is display the url in the message box, along with a message and provide the help button that takes you to that url:
MessageBox.Show( "test message", "caption", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Information, MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1, 0, '0 is default otherwise use MessageBoxOptions Enum "http://google.com", "keyword") Important to note this code cannot be in the load event of the form, the Help button will not open the link.
