I have written a .hlp file that I would like to be able to use when ever
the user presses the F1 key while the app is running.

The app is based in Access-97 running on Win95.

Any hints would be great.

Thanks

Each form has properties named, HelpFile and HelpContextID. Set Helpfile to
the name of your helpfile and the HelpContextID to the context ID of the
topic that you want to display when the helpfile is pulled up.  If you don't
store the full path name of your help file in the property, HelpFile, then
put your help file in the same directory as the mdb.

I haven't done it v7 but in v2 you just enter the name of the help file and
the help topic in the properties of  each control for which there is help.
If you leave the topic blank you should get the main help screen from which
the user can select help.
