Lisa,
Are you talking about something like the Show Me help available in Windows? If so, than I can state unequivocally that it exists; but you'll have to have one of the help experts point you in the right direction.
If you are talking about html help in a Web application, a little bit of javascipt, or maybe just a clever use of bookmarks on a well designed page, should enable you to change the focus back to the field.
