MAP IDs present, but doesn't seem to be working :(

Question

Hi all,I'm having quite a bit of trouble with a larger Help project, and I really hope you guys are able to help.I am building a rather extensive HTML Help project in RoboHelp8, which eventually has to be integrated into a Delphi application. There is around 250 MAP IDs in the project, but when i use the CSH Test Tool to try out the various IDs - it comes up with this:HH_HELP_CONTEXT called without a [MAP] sectionAccording to Adobe, this is due to "faulty" MAP IDs - but I can't see anything wrong with the MAP IDs!(I have attached a screenshot)Is it because my MAP IDs "point to" bookmarks inside the html files - resulting in Topic IDs of the form:topicname.html#_subtopicIs RoboHelp maybe unable to handle this?Any help is much appreciated...since I'm stuck!

Hi, I got the same error message after upgrading from RoboHelp 7 to RoboHelp 8. It turned out that something in the upgrade process wiped out the project's ALI project. It was blank. After restoring the old ALI file and recompiling, context sensitive help worked again. So I recommend checking your ALI file (though I certainly hope you got this figured out before now).
