Renaming Robohelp Projects

[Guest]

Recently we changed file name conventions, and I need to rename a few of the projects. I am having difficulties when recompiling my projects, and the old names keep popping up. Also all my External Topics dissappeared

We use RoboHelp for Word version 6. My Primary Layout is Winhelp 2000.

Could anyone help?

Are you renaming all the relevant files. Check that you have renamed the .cnt, .doc, .hh, .hpj, .hpr, .rbh and .rft files. There are also a number of other files that can be deleted as they are recreated. Finally the .hpj, .hpr and .cnt files need amending using Notepad to update any references they have for the old project name. The RH help has a good topic listing the steps you need to follow. Just use an index keyword of "renaming".
