Help Text in Forms

Hi,

I’d like to add in a database a simple help tool.
I have read how to do this using the Microsoft help Workshop, but I try to
work out with something simpler.
Let’s say if a textbox or combobox is focused and the user press F1 a frame
is popped up giving the help text. I also want the possibility to edit or
modify the help text with a function within the database in a simple way, as
filling a form.
Do you know where I can find an example showing something like this?

Thanks
GL
 
I have looked at the method mentioned in the site you suggest but I try to
use something simpler like opening a certain form when a textbox is focused
and the F1 key is pressed. My problem is that I don’t know if an ASCII code
is returned in that case to use it to open the form through VBA code. Could
you advise something about this please?
