Search tab

[Guest]

Hello again,

My compiled .chm finally looks fine, but the Search tab doesn't work. When I enter words I know are in my help system, I get a No Topics found message. The TOC, Index, and Favorites tabs seem to work just fine. If anybody has a solution, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks,

Kevin

Hi, Kevin,

This is usually a sign that one of the DLLs used by the help compiler is incorrectly registered. You can check for and fix this by running MJ's Help Diagnostics, available from the address below.

Alternatively, see the following articles for guidelines on how to register the DLL from the command line:
