I have a .chm file that works fine when the application is installed on the local hard drive but it won't invoke when installed on a server.

i.e. Each screen has a help button that has code "HELP ID THIS.HELPCONTEXTID" that brings up the appropriate help page when the application is on drive C: but when it is installed on a server, nothing happens when we click the Help buttons. We can get the Help File to come up from a Help Icon on the Desktop, but this does not give context sensitive help related to the screen they are looking at.

I have tried moving the .chm file to drive C: and resetting the location of the help file to drive C: with "SET HELP TO &HELPDRIV\MYHELP.CHM" but this makes no difference. The help buttons remain dead.

If anyone has any suggestions, I would be pleased to hear from you.
