Ashley,

This is what I did for using HTML help in VFP 5:

On Key Label F1 do HtmlHelp

procedure HtmlHelp
*
DECLARE INTEGER ShellExecute IN Shell32 ;
    INTEGER @HWND,;
    STRING @lpOperation,;
    STRING @lpFile,;
    STRING @lpParameters,;
    STRING @lpDirectory,;
    INTEGER @nShowCmd

hWind = 0
lcOperation = "OPEN"
lcFile = "HH.EXE"
lcParameter = "MyHelp.CHM" 
lcDirectory = "C:\WINDOWS"
liShow = 0
lnResult = ;
   ShellExecute(@hWind,@lcOperation,@lcFile,@lcParameter,@lcDirectory,liShow)
clear DLLS
