By mistake, when I was prompted for the *.hlp file associated with Delphi7HelpForBdsExpert.bpl, I clicked on Delphi7HelpForBdsExpert.dpk. Now, even when I uninstall the Delphi7HelpForBdsExpert.bpl component, then re-add it, the association still exists and I am warned that Delphi7HelpForBdsExpert.dpk "is not a Windows Help file". How can I cause BDS2006 to prompt me for the *.hlp file again?

Thanks for your help, Ingvar. It wasn't exactly what I needed but it set me in the right direction. For anyone who has the same problem, here's what I did: I located this path in the Registry Editor: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\dummzeuch\Delphi7HelpForBds There, I modified HelpFile to the correct path to file bcb6.hlp. File bcb6.hlp is part of a folder containing all of the other BCB6 Help files. That's it. Thanks again.
