How do I find topics with tracked changes on them?

[Jared Hess]

When trying to generate a help output, RH keeps showing a message box: "Your project contains tracked changes. Do you want to continue?"

How can I find what topics have the tracked changes? I don't see it as one of the reports and the track changes toolbar doesn't have anything either.

I'm using the latest RH 9.

[Peter Grainge]

Use a Find and Replace Tool such as Text Crawler and search on ?rh-track_start which preceeds all tracked changes. That will give you a list.

I'm using RH10, but the Review pane lists all track changes and comments. To view, View > Toolbars > Review.

Tech Doc Girl, thanks for that tip. In RoboHelp 9 (RH9), you access the review pane via Review > Show Review Pane.

Thanks for the responses everyone. I use RH 9 and had forgotten that pane even existed. We don't use that functionality much.

Hi,

I have updated text in RH 9 project and accepted the track changes. However, track changes are still available in word and web outputs.

Please suggest a solution.

Did you check the solutions mentioned above? If they don't work for you, let us know.

In RH I have accepted all texts that were in track change, and review pane displays no comments and change records. When I generate web and word output, newly added text files are displayed in track change.

I am not able figure out that if there is no track change text in RH, then how I am getting track change in the output files.

OK but more specifically did you follow the advice Peter Grainge gave above. It will make sure there are no hidden track changes.
