Question
Error 129
Today I installed Robohelp 7 onto a test machine and
converted our Word help file. Everything LOOKS like it should be
going fine and dandy.
Obviously that isn't the case, or I wouldn't be posting here.
We generate two help files - a WinHelp 2000 and HTML Help. The HTML help works wonderfully - no issues, headaches, etc. However, the WinHelp 2000 file claims that a number of "Topics do not exist. Contact your application vendor for an updated file." Yet, the file is there, the HTML help works fine - why is WinHelp 2000 bein a pain in my bootie?
Winhelp 4 works fine as well - I thought of possibly tossing that to the developers and seeing if they could make use of that. But if my Spidie-senses are correct, that isn't going to fly. I've read Robohelp's less-than-inspiring help file on error 129, and it gives 3 possible reasons for the error. The first two aren't a problem, and I can't determine if #3 is or not as the steps they give below that for a work-around don't make sense to me. (..what Contents tab? See below)
Ok, that was my really long winded problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

To workaround this WinHelp viewer limitation, you can either manually insert the Help filename statement on every page of the external CNT file or allow RoboHelp to automatically do it for you:
1 Open the Help file containing the included external CNT file.
2 From RoboHelp Explorer’s File menu, select Project Settings.
3 Select the Contents tab.
4 Select the Include Help filename with pages option. When you save the TOC file, this option automatically places the "@helpfilename.hlp" inside the CNT file on every page.
5 Click OK.
6 Save the external CNT file.
7 Recompile the Help project.
Ok, that was my really long winded problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
