Search does not display results.

Hi Folks,

I have successfully generated a .chm file but when I opened I found the search tab does not display results. Not sure if it's a defect or my own inexperience setting up the index links properly but if you could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.

If you try one of the sample products, does it work as expected in that situation?

Yes it does....

This RoboHelp Project File is set up so badly I might just start over from scratch and rebuild it. The master page is mislabeled and there is a ton of broken links and I am not sure how to fix them. Is there a setting when running the Microsoft HTML Help- File Generation wizard for the *.CHM search tab that I might have missed?

There really aren't any options that you can enable or disable as far as Search goes. The only place I'm aware of that you can configure anything related to search for CHM file is in the Window settings. There you can turn it off or on and enable "Advanced Search". But nothing that really affects how well it may work.

Cheers... Rick
