Hi Larry,

>>>According to the VFP help, invoking help with the F1 should invoke the help topic with the context ID of the object which currently has focus. Although my help file comes up fine, it isn't going automatically to the right topic via the context ID. It is as if the context ID doesn't exist.

You might have to create a header file for the project. See "Creating Information Types" in the HTML Help Workshop help file.
