'Help for this VI' Shortcut

I am using TS3.5/LV8.2. In my dev station I set a shortcut for the LabVIEW menu item 'Help'>'Help for this VI' to F2 which I then link to a .chm file an works fine but when I move the VI to another dev station the shortcut disappears. So at this point my theory is that this shortcut is not set in the VI but in the LV DevSystem, please shed some light on me if I am wrong...
 
Now, I want to deploy these VIs (50+) to several Production Stations (only LV RTE) so I wonder if there is a way to set this shortcut in some way other than adding an F2 event structure to launch the .chm file in all the VIs, which would be really really painful.
 
Thanx,

Hi,

Did you create a new Run-Time menu for your VIs, which was saved in a .rtm file?  If so, then you will want to also deploy that file, so your deployed VIs can still referenced that Run-Time menu.
