Subject:buggy index for merged chms? From:Ellen Bauerle <ebaue -at- advantagecs -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Wed, 20 Dec 2000 10:32:09 -0500
My tech writer neighbor has merged several .chms as a step toward the master
help that engineering wants. They merged fine, with one exception. The
Index tab in the left pane shows no content, tho each of the 3 projects has
been indexed individually. The other 2 tabs (Search and Contents) work
fine--books/pages are visible, etc.
What's up?
He's using RoboHTML 9 (also Word 2000) on a 64 mb RAM, Win98 machine.
Incidentally, on eHelp's site he found a patch that's needed to create a
merged TOC. He wonders if there's a similar patch for merged indexes in
RH9, tho neither he nor I can find it.
I've been to the TECHWRL archives but found no help.
TIA
Ellen Bauerle
