Calling the help provider in code

[Nereid]

does anyone know how to call the help provider dynamically in the code(Without using the event F1 keypressed). passing the keyword to it????????????

Want a What's this type of context menu style.
-Got all the context menu and the event sorted out just can't call the help in the event.

Had another idea...

I thought I was onto something with this, but apparantly you can't raise base class events in a derived class. Maybe you could do it from a Module or something...

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
                              ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
                                                        Handles Button1.Click
        RaiseEvent HelpRequested(sender, _
                New System.Windows.Forms.HelpEventArgs( _
                                New System.Drawing.Point(200, 200)))
    End Sub
