Scripting Help Viewer?

I will admit to being a little rusty but not too bad..

The dictionary for Help Viewer suggests that this should work.
----------
tell application "Help Viewer"
	activate
	search looking for "file"
end tell
----------

But it doesn't do anything other than activate Help Viewer.

After I found I was having troubles I google'd about and actually found the essentially above snippet online in a few different locations.

Bug or user error?
