can you have CSH calls in a CHM file ?

Question

my company previously just had a bunch of individual html files that were called by F1 in the application.

i have converted our entire admin guide to RoboHelp and included the CSH topics in the output. the idea is that when a user presses F1 on a wondow, the entire guide will be launched in the browser with that topic open.

as this application will be run on the desktop i am exploring using RoboHelp HTML ouput instead of WebHelp Pro.

my quesion is, if a single CHM file is built into the app as the help, can the individual topics still be called by the eixsting calls in the application ?

thanks

At the moment your developers have calls that open a specific HTML file.

To work with a CHM they will have to change their calls and the normal way would be to work with Map IDs.

There is information about Map IDs in the online help and on my site but you will need to work with your developers on that.
