Helpprovider not launching help from shortcut

Hi

My application uses msi to create the install application.
After I install and everything works the issue I am seeing is that when I
double click the application and then use F1 to see the help file, it does
show the help file. When I start the application from the desktop shortcut
created by the install application then the application starts but pressing
the F1 doesn't show the help file - the cursor changes for a second and
nothing happens. What is wrong here?


thanks

if the file name is specified without path, assuming that its in the
executable directory,

this.HelpProvider1.HelpNamespace = "myhelp.chm";

then in the shortcut, you have to specify "Start In" path for it to locate.

Shak.
