Items added in TOC when compile Winhelp 4

[Guest]

Hello all,

I've set a TOC by this way:

I use robohelp 9 with last patches set.

As you can see super_toto!!! book is empty.

But when I compile in Winhelp 4, I've got those results:

I've got now a super_toto!!! book not empty any more with craps in it... Those craps have names which are part of existing entries in my toc...

I've tried to delete the book but without success. I've tried to delete the associated entries of the craps, but, other craps are generated.

Have you got an idea?

Thanks.

  Philippe.

Hello,

Any news about it? How can I generated properly a new TOC in RoboHelp for Word?

It is a very blocking point for me, so, thanks for your answers...

Sorry but there are few RoboHelp for Word users supporting the forums now.

The only thing I can suggest is generate the help to a new location. Is there a GID file where you are generating to? If so trash it.

Hello,

Thanks for your help. I've tried to delete the gid files and regenerated to a new location, but still the same... It seems the cnt files generated is not the same than the originated one as they have additional strange entries in it...

An idea?

Thanks again.

The only other thing would be to delete all entries, save and close the project and then rebuild the TOC.

Hello,

Thanks for your help. I've used HelpDeco and found that my compiled project had a problem: during using of helpdeco, it couldn't generated 3 items for cnt generation, and there are 3 crap items in the compiled project

So, I think my RTF is corrupted, so I will try to regenerate it by using helpdeco and RoboHelp. From that point, once RTF will be regenerated, I will write again the CNT file.

I'll keep you in touch: thanks for your help.

The problem is that I have a new issue now that will be posted in a new subject...

Good sleuthing!

As far as I can recall the old way to fix a corrupt RTF file was to simply delete it. On reopening the project, I believe RoboHelp automatically recreated it.

Take a backup first though as it is a long time since I used RoboHelp for Word.
