Is there a trick to

[Gregg]

I changed the What'sThisHelp property on my form to true and I guess I was supposed to get a "button" in the title bar of my form but none appeared. I then associated the project with a help (html) file and set HelpContextID's and still nothing.

Trick?

I think that if you right click (at run-time) a popup-menu will appear with the option "What's this?"

Try setting the controlbox on your form = true. Thne see if it works.

From the help file:

Remarks

The WhatsThisHelp property must be True for the WhatsThisButton property to be True. In addition, the following properties must also be set as shown:

ControlBox property = True

BorderStyle property = Fixed Single or Sizable

MinButton and MaxButton = False
– Or –
BorderStyle property = Fixed Dialog

i'd of never guessed that in a million years. i looked for that same info in my help files and didn't find it.

evidently, it is a bit involved to use "what's this" with html help. oh well.

thanks greatly,
