Bookmarks not working when used in TOC

Does the WinHelp .chm file format not support Bookmarks in the TOC? I get the error message "This program cannot display the web page"?
Don't see this mention in the bookmark page in the Robohelp help.

Hi hardlyworking

WinHelp is .HLP format. .CHM files are HTML Help format. I'm guessing you are using the latter, as you are talking about bookmarks. Where is your project? If it is on a network, that's likely the issue here.

Yes, .chm output is the one.
It is not on a network or synched drive, this is why I was concerned. I thought I had read somewhere deep in the help files a caveat about using .chm with bookmark.
So, I have a .chm with bookmarks on a local drive.
When the end user clicks on a item in the TOC that was created using a bookmark, they get the "this program cannot display the web page" error.

Any ideas?

I have gone through and found a few that are working. I wonder if there is a naming convention I am violating? I don't have punctuation in the names, spaces seem to be ok.
