Subject:Copy Help File to.. From:jane <judydh -at- TOTAL -dot- NET> Date:Mon, 2 Aug 1999 11:48:33 -0400
Hi all
Today I had the brilliant idea of copying my help files to a network folder
as they are being compiled. This is an option in the RoboHELP project
settings, under the Compile tab. Will wonders never cease, but it copies
the *.hpt and sometimes the *.cnt files there, but not, apparently, the
*.hlp file. I've long used this option on a local drive, where it
faithfully copied the *.hlp and *.cnt files. I have successfully used this
option on a network folder once before. Does this sound familiar or
explicable, or do I have a gremlin?
Thanks a lot,
