Hi,

Does anyone know if it's possible to re-generate a WebHelp project using just the output files? If so, HOW?

Thank you!
Danni

Had a backup, but my son stepped on my jump drive (while it was in the drive) and destroyed it 2 days before the layoff. You're right though - CD next time. ;-)

Hi Danni - sorry to hear about the layoff. Lesson learned, huh? Burn a CD of the entire environment every month or so for your own personal archives. If anyone questions it, tell them it is going off-site for an additional backup --> restore option, which should be done anyway. Good luck in your next job search!

Hi Peter,

I wish I had the source files, but I recently got laid off at my job, and my former boss was not cooperating in giving me my help files (for my portfolio), so I had to resort to using the output files that I had. Luckily, I don't need every single file in this help file; just a few good topics to use as writing samples.

Welcome to the forum

I would try VERY hard to find the source files, assuming lost files is the reason you want to do this.

If not, then this link will help you.

You rock, Rick! Thank you so much. This will be a small nightmare on my part, but now that I know it's do-able, this makes it all worth it.
