Changing the editor for Multi-File Find and Replace

When I click edit on a file it opens it up inside Word. Anyway to get this tool to open the topic inside RH? Or inside another text editor like Notepad++? I don't trust Word to leave my code like I want it.

Thanks in advance,

Jared

Don't know about RH7, but in RH8, you:

  1. Right click the topic.
  2. From the Edit with... option, select the editor you want to use.

For more info (setting a default editor, adding editors to the list, etc.), see the RoboHelp editors topic in their help.

Good luck,

Leon

RH 7 just has the main "Edit" button. I will be upgrading to RH 9 next quarter though, so that'll be good.

You don't get the Edit With option in Multi File Find and Replace.

The editor from Multi File Find and Replace is whatever is set as the HTML editor in IE. If a suitable app is listed there, choose that. If not, see Snippet 88 on my site for instuctions on how to add it.

Don't pick RoboHelp as the editor though as it no longer supports single topic editing.
