First, to activate the help button go to your Form properties.
Set MaximizeBox and MinimizeBox to false and HelpButton to true.
This will display the Help button.
Then go to the events for the form and double click HelpButtonClicked.
In this function you place whatever code you use to display your version number.
I would also recommend you to use:
System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Version.ToString()
