Hi Randi

If you are creating WebHelp, things should all be relative to wherever your output folder is stored. Normally this is a folder named WebHelp inside a folder named !SSL! with the main project folder. The structure should look a bit like this:

Main Project Folder
* Project .HTM files
* Project Image files
* Etc.
==>!SSL!
====>WebHelp
====>WebHelp .HTM files
====>WebHelp Image files
====>Etc.

When you mentioned the .h file should be "found two levels higher", this makes me think you are trying to map to the source topics. In actual use, it should all be relative. What you really want is for the .h file to map to the WebHelp output files. These are modified versions of your project source files.

Normally you forego the bssc (Blue Sky Software Corporation) .h file and create one or more of your own. Or use one or more .h files supplied by development staff.

Sincerely... Rick :)

Have been lurking for a few months and found lots of useful information. I
now need help and am posting for the first time. My issue is with
context-sensitive help.
RoboHelp X5.0.1 - creating WebHelp
Windows XP

Explanation:
Created map id's, then copied bsscdefault.h to the output folder to check-in
to our version control software.
Developer copied files to application help folder.
Context-sensitive help didn't work because the bsscdefault.h file was in the
output folder.
To make the CSH work, we moved the bsscdefault.h file three folders up
(because that is the same reference path as when it was compiled).

Questions:
Can the reference path be changed so the bsscdefault.h file CAN be located
in the output folder?
And if so, do you know which file I would change?
Am I missing the boat here - is it something simple I am missing?

Thank you in advance.
