Yes, but there are lots and lots of ways to do it. I eventually ended up
using this: http://www.helpmatic.net. I'm not affiliated with them in any
way. It does the job at a reasonable price. You can then have context
sensitive help with something like this:

'in form code
Sub cmdHelp_Click()
XHelp 17 'open help topic 17
End Sub

'in general module
Public Sub XHelp(lContextID As Long)
Dim strHelpFile As String
strHelpFile = shMenu.Parent.Path & "\HelpFile.hlp"
Application.Help strHelpFile, lContextID
End Sub

Is it possible to create a simple help file in VB for excel without the
use
of a developer tool kit?
