Small F1 help bug?

I was showing a colleague how the F1 context sensitive help works when
coding COBOL. When I selected the MOVE or the PERFORM keywords and pressed
F1, the appropriate help window appeared as designed.  But when I selected
the READ keyword, the an empty help window appeared. It did not position us
to the help page for the READ statement. I attempted this multiple times and
even tried from two different READ statements in the program. I have not
tried all COBOL statement keywords, so I don't know whether or not this
happens for any other keywords.

Is this something with my installation, or is this something others
replicate?

Thanks,
Kelly
