Help & Manual issue in Delphi 2006

Hello I am in need of some help and guidance in trying to use .hlp
files in Delphi. Our tech writer created some .hlp files for my
application. He used Help & Manual. I am now ready to implement that
file in my application. Of course as luck would have it our tech writer
is no longer here and I do not have the context map of the file.
Nevertheless I down-loaded a helpdemo from Help and Manual to see how
it works. If I press the key to activate the help manual I get the
following error -
		"no context-sensitive help installed"

I also tried to guess the context number on my .hlp file and I have
also used 1 and get the following error as well.

These are things I have done:
	1. The .hlp file is located in the same dir as the exe.
	2. I have assigned the .hlp in the application part under
project/options.
	3. The source code line I have use when click on the help button
and pressing F1. I use application.HelpContext(1);


Can anyone shed any light on the matter. Any help would be grateful. 

Thanks,
Semone
