Yes you can. Just create a map file, add the mapid and assign them to the topics. Then just unassign from the old file and delete the file if required.

You can also create a new map file. Then close RoboHelp and use notepad

to copy (part of) the content from one file to another. That might be

easier as it saves you from reassigning. (If Column ment unassign,

remake and reassign.)

After copying, just trash the CPD to make sure and open your project.

Kind regards,

Willam

Thanks, I thought about trying that first, but wasn't sure if RoboHelp

would find the moved map numbers without doing something like an Import.

Drag and Drop map numbers would sure be nice.

Willam. Your skill set never ceases to amaze me. I didn't know you had mind reading as well. That can come in very useful here 🙂

Thanks, I'll be trying that today. It would be nice if you could do a drag

and drop or copy and paste similar to the table of contents.
