Question

do hyperlinks stay?

Hi - our biggest robo project is our planning scheme, with over 1500 pages in multiple Word docs which are all linked together with cross referencing hyperlinks - about 4,000 of them. When we imported it in a previous version of roboinfo, the links were underlined but not active and we spent three weeks re-linking the whole project. My big question is: if I import this same humongous thing into Robohelp 7 will the links be retained? Please say yes! The old project: http://v2.redland.qld.gov.au/rpsdoc/ Thanks, Tracey.

Hi, in my experience if I set up the link in Word including the "Target Frame" in the Hyperlink window the link imports properly and works fine. I have only used the Same Frame and New Window choices in the Target Frame selection box. It seems that the defaults used by Word don't seem to translate into HTML very well.

Welcome to the forum.

I don't think anyone can say Yes for definite. There could always be something unique about what you have done. RoboInfo was a different product.

It should all be OK but there is only one acid test. I would suggest installing the trial version of RH7 on another PC, not your production machine and trying it.

The link you provided does not seem to work.
