X5 and Search "no topics found"

A .chm help file I've created with X5 always returns message "No Topics Found" when anything is entered in the search dialogue.

I haven't used Robo much recently, so checked an old project chm (2002 vintage) to see if I could enter any word seen on a page and have it found - and the search worked fine.
I then opened this old project up in X5, saved it, recompiled, and now the search does not work.

Any clues what settings I may have wrong.
Have X5 installed locally - no servers involved as mentioned in other posts.
Just turned IE7 security to Medium - no change


Thanks

Hi flintfox

I seem to recall that this could be a symptom that all the assorted .DLL files associated with the HTML Help Viewer weren't properly registered or otherwise coexisting. You should probably visit HelpWare.net and download a tool called "MJ's Diagnostics". (Name comes from a former Windows Help MVP named MJ Plaster. Click here

Give that a go and let us know how you get on! Rick

Registering the file c:\windows\system32\itcc.dll did the trick for me.

1. Click Start | Run.
2. Enter "regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\itcc.dll" (without the quotes).
3. Click OK.
4. Recompile your HTML Help file.

Thanks to flintfox for pointing me in the right direction!

- Greg regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\itcc.dll

Thanks Captive8, I got the diagnostics and ran it, but then ran out of steam trying to interpret the results. Sounds like Greg had more steam than me.

Greg, thanks a lot - registering itcc.dll did the trick
