My .chm pages do not display when I copy/paste a generated .chm to a new location for group review. I know there IS a fix, I just don't remember how. Can any one help?
Thanks

    Hi, Susan,

    See this article on Peter Grainge's site:

    Notice that the registry changes described in the article must be made on all users' machines, so the more straightforward solution may simply be to have them copy your .chm file to their local drives. However, if the users are going to make the registry changes, I can recommend HHReg as the easiest way to do so.

    I'm not sure it's a registry issue. The copied .chm does not display on my machine either. The freshly, un-copied one does, but the copied-to-a-new-location .chm does not.
