Hi all - new user so any help much appreciated.
I have created several individual Webhelp projects using robohelp 9.
Each project contains its own toc. At the end of each toc I have placed external links to the other projects as related topics.
I have directed the external links to the index.html file for each of the projects.
The problem that i have occurs when I click on the toc link to a related topic in the browser.
The browser displays the original toc, the new toc and the project that I have linked to (so I have 2 tocs displayed next to each other).
Is there a way that I can adjust the toc link so that only the new project is displayed and the toc of the original project disapears?.
Hope this makes sense.
Thanks
James

If a TOC item links to the output of another project, it will open with the tripane in the topic window.
You need to consider
Merged Help is described on my site and DUCC is described in the RoboHelp Tour you can access from my site. It is also demonstrated int the RoboHelp 9 sample projects. Click Open on the RoboHelp Starter page and then click Samples in the ribbon on the left.
You cannot set up a TOC in the way you are trying to close one project and open another.

Looks like I was wrong.
Rick did a bit more poking around and suggested this solution that does seem to do what you want.
Edit the properties of the TOC page pointing to the other WebHelp and look at the Advanced tab.
Choose Whole Page for the frame.

That is exactly what I was looking for.
Many thanks.
