Sorry, I wrote the post from memory. The line of code I am using is:

Application.ThisWorkbook.VBProject.HelpFile = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & _
gsHELPDIRECTORY & "\" & gsCONTEXTHELPFILE

This works if the project is not Protected (Locked for Viewing) but does
not
if it is.
Activeworkbook or ThisWorkbook do not have HelpFile properties for
assigning
the
WinHelp 4.0 file name. You can assign it by right clicking the project in
the IDE,
selecting VBA Project Properties and assigning the help file and path
there
but
I need to assign it dynamically so that I can distribute the addin.
I am using HTML with URLs to call a number of HTML files for general help
but as VBA does not support HTML context help I am using WinHelp 4.0
for this.

Why are you using the vbProject? Would Activeworkbook, or ThisWorkbook
not
do what you want?

om...
To use context help (Whats this help) in an Excel VBA form I can
assign the help 4.0 file name and path using

Activedocument.vbProject.helpfile = <file name and path

However this doesn't work if the project is locked or protected as the
vbProject properties are protected. How can I do this with a
protected project?

(Note: this was posted yesterday but the return e-mail address was an
