How to access a help file in LabVIEW 6.0.1?

I have developed an application witch I want to include a help file. I have
also created a Help file (in RoboHelp).
It would be nice if I could activate Context Help, and when I point on a
control, the help text that I wrote in the help file, would appear in the
Context Help window.

The context help window shows the description when idled over. If you
use the VI Settings or VI properties in 6, you can set the help path and
help token to be the .hlp file and the token to index to, the question
mark on the help window will take the user to the help file at the token
listed. The context help is always stored in the VI though.
