You can - in Interface Builder - create any menu item you want with
whatever keyboard shortcut you want. How did you specify ⌘9 as a
shortcut? Just add a new menu item to any of your menus, change it's
title to "Help", and Control-drag from the new item to an object (a
file) which you want to handle the help action and choose which of
your pre-existing methods you want to use.

Thanks for the response. However, I have already deleted the help
menu. Until this works, I have the shortcut as ⌘9 for testing
purposes. This works fine. Unfortunately, as soon as I change it to
⌘?, pressing the keys makes nothing happen. Literally, nothing - it
doesn't even beep, as it would if I pressed ⌘3, for example.

Hi,
In Leopard, pressing ⌘? automatically activates the Help menu.
Unfortunately, this means the ⌘? shortcut cannot be assigned to
anything else. In my application, the ⌘? shortcut needs to
perform a different action to the pre-built one. (It is a full-
screen application, help is written on a simple panel.)
How can I rewire the ⌘? shortcut to my showHelp: method?

Very easy. Just do it in Interface Builder. Select the Help menu
item, then in the connections inspector disconnect it from it's
default connection and re-assign it, or just simply delete the menu
item.
HTH,
