Error saying Microsoft Word does not exist

[ctomasze]

I have Microsoft Office 2007 on my computer, and RoboHelp X3. When I try to create a manual in Word, it gives me an error message saying, "Printed Documentation: Microsoft Word does not exist. Please install Microsoft Word 2000 or later." How do I get the two applications to recognize each other?

Welcome to the forum.

You won't get them to recognise each other. The first version of RH to work with Word 2007 is Adobe RH7.

You can dual install an earlier version of Word if you still have a licence. How is on my site.

RH has to be installed after Word and you should install the versions of Word in the order of release. Don't be too surprised if you hit some issues.

I would recommend upgrading RH. X3 is pretty old now.
