Helium is inert and therefore won't combine with anything.

If you know that two compounds containing helium atoms exist then you know more about this than I do.
Most of the other Noble gases have been combined chemically, but helium seems to be the exception. Almost 20 years ago, some calculations showed that a HeBeO compound might be possible but this has never been made to my knowledge.
Helium, which only has two electrons in the 1s orbital, is a monoatomic gas above 4 .2 degrees Kelvin. It has an extremely high Ionization Potential at 24.587 volts. It's electronegativity is always listed as --- or none.

Hmm, there were no compounds listed for He that I saw.
You may be talking about diatomic and monoatomic Helium. Diatomic He is two atoms of Helium together to form the common He gas. Monoatomic Helium is what is formed if the gas is heated enough to ionize and break the covalent bonds.
These would be represented in chemical formulae as He(2) and He.

Although Xe and Kr can be seduced into forming some compounds with the two most electronegative elements, F and O, the electrons in He are too tightly held for the formation of any compounds.

Helium can form unstable compounds with tungsten, iodine, fluorine, sulfur and phosphorus when it is subjected to an electric glow discharge, through electron bombardment or is otherwise a plasma.
