Question

creating a link for external users to view my project

Hi -

I want to share my RoboHelp project with external users that do not have access to my company's internal server if I publish there. Is there a way to create a link to my project that I can just share with other people?

Thanks!

    Welcome to our community

    Unfortuantely there isn't really a way to do that. At least, not a way I'm aware of.

    You might consider outputting your project as a Microsoft HTML Help file. You should be able to easily do that. Just choose to create Microsoft HTML Help and not WebHelp, FlashHelp or whatever it is you have created. This would then provide a single file in .CHM format that you would be able to send to those folks.

    Cheers... Rick

    Hi, thanks for the response. I went ahead and generated the Microsoft HTML Help file. How do I view this file? Nothing comes up when I generate it.

    Great, I got it to copy. However, Outlook won't blocked access to the file due to potentially unsafe material. So many issues...


    Just rename the extension to fake Outlook out & tell your recipient to rename it back to .chm
