Can commas within topic titles and *.htm filenames affect hyperlink jumps?

[Guest]

I have two topics that I'm trying to jump to from other topics. The thing these two topics have in common is that I originally used commas and apostrophes in the topic titles and *.htm filenames. This seemed to screw things up, since my jumps to the topics never worked.

I deleted the topics that were causing problems and re-added them without using the punctuation. I still can't jump to these topics. To test whether there was a restriction on the maximum number of jumps you can add in one project, I created a jump to an entirely different topic - the jump worked.

So, I think something got corrupted with these topics. I could try deleting them and adding them "fresh" again, but I thought I'd post here to see if anyone has come across the problem before.

thanks in advance,

I was able to fix the problem by re-creating (for a second time) the topic titles and files and not using any punctuation whatsover. I think the problem stemmed from the keywords that were used/unused/deleted/reused. I went to the Index tab, selected "See Also" from the drop list, and deleted any keywords that were bolded.
