i found the solution. to check HELP ID box in any control that you want to display context help. when i compile it creates a resource.hm file. now i am struggling to fix a richtext file:) i will manage i think...

I replied to this last week, but it got lost. (20 min. waisted, sigh.)

But you alreadyfigured out the Help checkbox partunder dialog control properties.

I made good use of Jugoslav's XFLOGM routine: CALL DlgSetHelp. in the callback, you only need one call to WinHelp for all the controls, by using the ContextID as an argument. Then in the RTF file, you add the ContextIDto each help topic for each control.

Oops, forgot about resource.HM, the file created when you check the Help ID check box. Add this file to the MAP section of the Help Workshop HPJ file.
