Hilmar,

You are right but i do not understand one thing. When i am using a modeless form _vfp.Activeform is obviously my active form whose window state is modeless now if i change the window state property from modeless to modal it seems to be working fine. In the system we have certain modal forms for which when we press F1 on that form automatially the help is invoked on helpcontextid and it goes to the particular page. But if i make the window state property to modeless somehow it doesnot work.

I am not able to understand why ?

TIA
