HelpContextID

[mkendi]

In my application I use context-sensitive help.
I put the command "THISFORM.HELPCONTEXTID = xxx" into the init-method.
Everything works perfect.
But as soon as I add an activeX object into my form, the keypress F1 does nothing. The KeyPreView property of the form is set to TRUE.

Thanks in advance

Have you tried SET HELP ON? If that doesn't work then what is the activeX control you are seeing this behavior with? If you remove the ActiveX control I am assuming that it then will bring up the help file as expected?

SET HELP ON: no result.
Yes, without the ocx the help triggers correctly

...could you take a moment and answer this question so that I can try and reproduce the behavior you are seeing? Thanks.
