Access XP and CHM Help Files

Hi

I have just started creating a CHM file and associating it with the various
forms, controls etc. by using context and helpfile properties.

Problem is that when the file is opened from Access, all the search
functionality looks towards Access help and not my help file. The
contents/help structure displays OK but any keywords etc. don't get picked
up in searches.

Is there a solution to this limitation (seems pretty stupid to not be able
to search the application specific help just coz the file was called via
object properties in an Access frontend) that doesn't involve me having to
write my own calls to the help/help contextID everytime the F1 key is
pressed?

Thankyou

Mark

pun intended! <g>)
