F1 Will not raise Help files

[Guest]

My help files were working well.
I made a macro with sendkeys to open the files with a button & that worked
OK, but sometimes with a delay. The F1 key still worked fine.
Then, after doing more work on graphics, the F1 key just stopped working, as
did the macro.
I re-compiled the help files, deleted the macro, tested the F1 key on other
applications and it worked fine.
The ".chm" file is labeled correctly and the alias/context id files appear
accutrate.

Any ideas why this can happen and what the solution is? I do just have the
files on the same local directory.
Thank you,
Karl

I found an answer myself, searching a knowledge base in MS Support. I
followed the suggestions on the following link:

By creating a macro, as described using the "runcode" and calling the help
function, which was "CallHelp ()" in my case, the help files came up, and the
funtionality of the "F1" key was also restored.
