Where are FrameMaker Source Files

I'm an experienced FrameMaker user, but have never used RoboHelp. I'm evaluating the Tech Comm Suite for a client. I succeeded in using the Reviewer's Guide to import FrameMaker files & deploy a help system. Next, I created my own project and followed the instructions in the Adobe blog to import FrameMaker files. Now, I'm attempting to follow the instructions in the Adobe blog "Updating linked FrameMaker files," which explains how to update the style mappings. However, I can't find or don't recognize the FrameMaker files that I imported in RoboHelp.

Help?

Thanks,
Carol

    You need to use the Add by Reference command to add the book. It is not clear from your post if you imported the book or added it as a "live link" by using Add by Reference.

    Hi, Carol. I had followed your original inquiry and I'm still a bit confused. Were you able to do what you had wanted with the tutorials? Let us know if not.
    Thanx,
