In the init section of a form - or anywhere else for that matter - I use SET TOPIC ID TO nnn where nnn is the topic id number in the html help file. If it is a form, sometimes I use This.SetAll to set all object on a form in the init method and set particular ones in the getfocus of an object and reset them in a lostfocus of that object. Downside is to keep track of all the nnn's. By the way, I use the WestWind HTML help builder to keep track of all the nnn's and it makes writing the help easier as I can see the help and the program at the same time.
