can't load FM docs with trial suite

I've downloaded the Tech Comm Suite trial to evaluate FM 8 and the integrated RH 7, but I can't figure out how to create online help. The installer has placed icons on my desktop for FM 8, RH 7 for Word, RH 7 HTML, RoboSource Control, and Captivate (I opted not to install Acrobat 3D, FM Clipart, and various FM filters). But FM 8 has no RoboHelp output feature that I can find, and the two RH applications don't seem to allow FM import.

What am I missing?

With TCS you should see two icons, one for RH HTML and one for RH for Word. For your FM work, you will be using RH HTML. The other version is just part of what you get.

I may have spoken too soon. The opening screen for RH HTML presents an Import option (Import Microsoft HTML Help Project, Word Document, or More... > WinHelp, WinHelp Project, or PDF Document) with no FrameMaker option. But I went ahead anyway and created a project, and then the File > Import choices included "FrameMaker Document."

However, I was expecting a RoboHelp 7 for FrameMaker icon, not a RoboHelp 7 for Word icon (why would the Tech Comm Suite include that?), so I would like to confirm that this is normal.
