To clarify, below I say 'hyperlink' when I meant to say 'hypertext link'.

>My client wants me to simulate html type help, or a hyperlink in my vfp app.
>The app doesn't necessarily have to call up a browser, it is just that they want to be able to click on underlined text and call up a help definition for the underlined text.

>So far I have done the following:
>
>Have a label that contains the non-underlined text, put it immediately adjacent to a command button with the underlined text in question, then follow with the remainder of the 'the sentence'. This works ok for grey background. But, you can't (at least without difficulty I think) change the backcolor of a command button. (there were some threads on this - regarding windows color scheme - that I have yet to fully understand)
>
>Put a label directly behind an invisible button (with send to back). Call the help screen from the command button click. Change the forecolor of the label, in click method of invisible button.

>Are there some other controls (ActiveX?) that will do this? Or actually create true hyperlink, that calls up a browser
