RH7 Topics in TOC don't display in Help

I'm using RH7; I create Web Help and printed documentation, both Word and pdf versions. All of my topics are in the TOC. However, two of the topics (which are in the TOC) don't appear in the generated Help or in either version of the printed documentation. If you jump to them from internal links, they show up, but they don't appear in the geneated Help's or printed documentation's TOC. ?!?

It's particularly a problem in the printed documentation, for when I want to create a user's manual from the file and only find out by accident that something is missing.

I've tried restarting the program and restarting the computer. 🙂 Windows xp professional.

Thanks for any tips!

Lance

Hi there

Do these topics simply not appear in the TOC to click on or is it more that you see them in the TOC, but clicking does not produce an action?

Do you have any Conditional Build Tags applied?

Cheers... Rick

In addition to Rick's questions, just adding a topic to the TOC does not automatically add it to Printed Documentation. The topics in the print layout are intentionally kept separate as explained in Printed Documentation on my site.

Thanks, I know that.

I've been using the program for about three years with no problem, adding and removing topics to Help and printed doc TOCs with no issue.

I've tried removing and re-adding the topics to the Help TOC a couple of times now - and then rebuilt docs as well; no effect.

Thanks for your time.
