Hi, jknoke and welcome
Not sure which RH 2 you are referring to because the naming
scheme has changed so much over the years. Also, you didn't say
whether you want to convert an old WinHelp (.hlp) to the HTML Help
.CHM or WebHelp format, or continue producing WinHelp?
If you wanted to convert to HTML-based, open RoboHelp HTML
and click File > New > Project.
At the Wizard choose the Import tab. I'll include two
possibilities:
#1 - Assuming this was a WinHelp project:
From the Import type, choose WinHelp .hlp or the .hpj (better
if you have the associated .rtf files). You then locate the .hpj or
.hlp from your WinHelp project on your hard drive and RoboHelp
converts it to the latest RH 6 version for an HTML-based project.
For documentation, click the context sensitive help Help Button in
each dialog box.
#2 If for some reason you wanted to convert and update and
continue using the older WinHelp format, you would instead open
RoboHelp for Word and from the File menu, click New > select the
Import tab and choose Other Help Projects and locate the .hpj
project from there. This will convert the project to RoboHelp for
Word v6.
If this is not what you had in mind, let us know and we'll
try to help. Be sure and let us know a few more specifics about
your old RH 2 project (exact versions, desired output, etc.) and
what your goal is going forward (WinHelp or HTML Help)
Thanx, and glad to have you aboard
