Creating help files in access programming

Teres

Dear all,


Thanks in advanced for any advice to write help information in access
database. Your expertise knowledge should certainly help newbie like me
with the following simple examples:

MsgBox(prompt[, buttons] [, title] [, helpfile, context])

I've tried to open some help (*.hlp) file in windows with Notepad and MS
Word. I found some strange character and don't understand the structure.
Is there any special tools to create help file in access or windows system.
Besides, what is the context file? How to create it?

Best regards,
Teres
