"Generate Primary Layout" not updating edits to help file

I am using RoboHelp 6.0 (RoboHelp for Word).  When I generate my primary layout (WinHelp4) and then view my .hlp file, none of my edits are updated.  The last time I made updates was two months ago and my edits were showing updated.

Thanks

    Hi there

    What is the output?

    In nearly every case like this the end result turns out to be that you (or your user) is actually viewing an older copy of the help system that you probably are totally unaware exists.

    Have you double checked for that?

    I'm outputing to WinHelp4.  Another thing I did was instead of generating the primary I did a view of the primary layout and I got a message stating "WinHelp4 output is out of date".

    When you generate, you can tick / untick which documents are included. Are all the documents ticked?

    If that is not the cause, how big is the project zipped up? Do not send it yet. For now, I just want to know the size.

    See www.grainge.org for RoboHelp and Authoring tips


    All documents are ticked.  One thing I noticed when generating the primary layout, there is a message which states "Removing broken jumps..."  Processing name.rtf.  Is it possible that may have something to do with it?

    I work for a health insurance company and the help file contains confidential information - I wouldn't be able to zip it.
