Hello-
Is there a way to work from generated files in a project after it is published?? We lost the 'originals' which were on a hard drive that got zapped. Now I am scrambling to figure out how to open it when I can't see the xpj file???
I know this has come up before - but I am having a mental block. Will keep searching on the posts.
Thanks for any help!!

Hi there
Does the fact you say "generated files" mean you are left with only WebHelp or FlashHelp output? If so, the link below should help.
If you say you have a CHM file, try the link below this.

Thanks - I read through that. Do you really think I need to do all that editing (red boxes,etc) for a simple project?? This one has no DHTML and is pretty straight forward.
Bottom line - I need to rebuild it and can't just use the existing files anymore??? UGH!!
Thanks for the input-
Hi there
Well, it's a bit subjective. I compare creating WebHelp to baking cookies. Sure, I can take the already baked cookies and crumble them up and mix them with fresh dough, but my net result will be that they aren't the same cookies as I'd get if I simply created fresh dough.
The steps are only needed if you want the project to work flawlessly when you re-generate it. If you don't mind your end users seeing intermittent "out of memory" and other errors when they display your pages, go for it.
Cheers... Rick
