Hello, New to RoboHelp, i have imported an old help32 project, and have just about everything working fine, except the search feature. When i type in anything, and click the list topic button, it always returns the message "No topics found", and i know the words are within my help project. Is there something i need to do to get the contents of the help topics and indes text inculded into the search feature. Thanks for any help!! Mike

Hi, Mike, and welcome,

The "No topics found" message is usually a sign that one of the DLLs used by the help compiler is incorrectly registered. You can check for and fix this by running MJ's Help Diagnostics, available from the address below.

Alternatively, see the following articles for guidelines on how to register the DLL from the command line:

Pete,

Thanks for the quick response.....I will try this fix, are these dll's used during the compile or a runtime. I did check other chm files i found on my system and they seem to work fine.

Thanks again,
Mike

Hi, Mike,

They're used at compile time. So, only .chm files that you compile while the DLLs are missing or incorrectly registered will exhibit the problem; others will be fine.
