Easiest way to implement context help


what is the easiest way to implement context sensitive help?

i was thinking about Form_Mousemove,
Button1_mousemove, etc

but then i have to code them all in a separate mousemove so it is a lot code extra.

are there better ways of doing context help?

Also, instead of using the project menu, if you need to set the help path to a dynamic path, you can
use App.HelpFile in your form load, setting it to the appropriate location, of course.

>>Then you can simply put in the page you wish to show.

can you explain this a little more?

i'm not familiair with HelpContextID

btw i'm using HelpMaker from http://www.vizacc.com/ (freeware)
Okay, you should be able to go to:

HelpMaker menu -> Power Editor:

There you will see Help Contect No. which you can change for each topic of the helpfile.
Thank you!

You're welcome.
