Thank you Razzak, 

and I understand that RBase Runtime has the Topic_IDs as described below.

For example, if the current "context-sensitive Topic_ID" number is set to
2225, and you press Shift-F1, you will see help for the Where Builder. (See
Below.)
Likewise, if you build your own RBG.HLP and RBG.HPJ files, the Map section
in the HPJ file can point to every Topic ID in your customized HLP file. 

So, you can "map" to every Topic_ID in your own Help file. Then by pressing
Shift-F1 you will get context sensitive help if you store the desired
Topic_ID number in the:
"RBase_Context_Sensitive_Topic_ID_Number" variable.

OR, do you do this via a UDF with parms to WinHelp?

TIA,
Close, but no cigar,
Dennis

If you know how to create Windows help systems, you can create your own
help system to replace this one. Users can press [Shift] + [F1] to open
context-sensitive online help for the active window, or press [F1] to open
the main contents window of online help. 

Note: Before you replace the current help system, you should make a backup
of it. 
The following table lists all the windows and dialog boxes for which you
can provide help, and the corresponding context numbers used in R:BASE. Use
these context numbers in the [MAP] section of the HPJ file or in a separate
map file and assign context strings (jumps) to them. 
Note: In order for R:BASE to use your help system, you must name the .HPJ
file RBG.HPJ; the help file will then be called RBG.HLP.
