Murfrider,
Two questions: What output are you working with? and What
version of RH?
If it's CHM, there's a great free tool called "KeyTools" at
http://www.keyworks.net/ that
I've used. Just point to the chm you want to decomile into HTML
files, then tell it where you want to save the files. Easy and
fast.
If it's WebHelp, well, I wouldn't recommend trying to
"reverse engineer" it. Someone over here inadvertently imported an
HTML file from a WebHelp output and they screwed up the project
(we're still using RH X5). In this case, if you have no other
choice, I would somehow try to clean up the HTML files (maybe use
Dreamweaver) before you import them into a new RH project. I
haven't gotten my hands on the production version of RH 7 yet -
maybe they have better clean up tools. You could also view the
files in IE/Firefox then copy the content into new RH topics, but
that would be tedious also.
Either way you look at it, it won't be a "push a button and
go" kind of thing, though that would be great, wouldn't it?
Maybe Peter or Rick will chime in to give better advice. If
you have a choice of outputs to work from, I'd go for a CHM.
