Robohelp 8 HTML wants to use notepad as an editor

[Eye_C]

Hi,

I'm just getting started with RoboHelp HTML. One of my major tasks will be to import existing Microsoft HTML Help projects into Robohelp. I just imported my first existing MS HTML project into Robohelp using the hhp file. The topics all appear to have imported correctly. However, when I double-click on a topic, the topic opens in Notepad rather than Design Editor. Why are the topics opening in Notepad and are there some settings I can change to make them open in Design Editor instead?

Hi there

Click Tools > Options > Associations tab.

From there, ensure Design View is the default editor, then select the Use Default Editor option.

Cheers and happy RoboHelping! Rick
