Map ID problems

Hi Folks,

I need to create Map IDs to new topics. The ID and updated hm file were provided by the developer. I did the following steps:
1. Under Project, right-click Alias and click New Alias.
2. In the alias box, click type to ID as found in the hh or hm file, or click the folder icon to select the unused ID from the list.
3. In the topic box, select the topic to which you want to link the ID.
4. Click OK.

When I generate the help, the new topics aren't linked correctly to their relevant screens. The developer says this is a problem with the Map IDs. When I look at the Map IDs in the project pane I see a 'sunglasses' symbol/ icon beside the new topics, as opposed to a question mark beside the other topics.

Does anyone know what the sunglasses signify? Is my problem familiar to anyone?

Thanks,

Niall.
