Question

How do I replicate a RoboHelp project?

I used RH way back when, and I thought that, back then, I could name the folder where a project is stored in the .hpj file. Am I remembering incorrectly? I used that capabilty to maintain multiple versions of a Help project and to replicate projects and modify the HPJ to point to the folder I wanted to work with/compile.

I'm working with RH 11. Can I this with an .xpj file?

HPJ files were associated with RoboHelp for Word and it was MPJ files that were associated with RoboHelp HTML, now the latter are known as XPJ files.

To duplicate a project, simply copy the folder in Windows Explorer and name it whatever you want. Open the project from the XPJ file and then go to File > Rename. Rh will then rename most of its internal files and you are good to go.
