Thanks Mike, I can see where that could be useful. But in this case, these control numbers point back to specific paragraph numbers in a requirements document....
Thanks Adele... Since my document could potentially have hundreds of these control numbers, many of them unique, I'm not sure how that would work. My...
Gwen, You did a great job of describing the issue. Yes, I would say embedded text is not the solution for the inline conditionality you describe here. ...
Reading about this situation is helping me change my paradigm of how I use AuthorIT. Thank you for posting the question. David, if you use variables in this...
John, Theoretically speaking, if you only had one control number in each topic, you could use the same variable throughout your whole book! You can assign a...

Thanks David. I suspected as much so I gave my boss a heads-up about it yesterday. He's a nice guy, he'll go for it. ;-) Especially since it looks like we may...
Actually you might end up with only a single variable but it may have hundreds of values. You could conceivably create a variable called "Control_Number" and...
Hi Rosemary, I logged a call directly with AuthorIT and here's the response I received: "No, at the moment there isn't a way to limit the instances that will...
Hi Folks, One of the quickest (and easiest) ways to customize your HTML output to match your company look and feel, is by adjusting the styles and navigation...
ich weiss es nicht ob es gibt's wiel Deutsch Sprächer hier. Ich selbst spreche nur ein wenig, und leider schlecht Deutsch, aber ich habe dieser Probleme...
Char, Ian, Ross, Maryanne, Thank you all for your responses, I think I have enough information already to provide a more or less objective comparision of...
Bernhard, ... This is happening because of the so-called "current directory bug", where the current directory is changed by the application and external files...
Guten tag, Bernhard :-) I can read German to an extent, but I don't write it or speak it very well, so English is much easier! ... The code looks fine...just...
Well, My problem turned out to be that I was missing a line of VBA code in the macro that made things run smoothly. Somebody at AuthorIT support sent me the...
Hi, Kate :-) I had a couple of other thoughts that may help your arguments (sorry for the delay...I was at WinWriters this week and working on my presentations...
Hi, The WinWriters conference was wonderful and the AuthorIT demonstration by Paul Trotter convinced me that AuthorIT should be our new tool! I am now working...
Hi Kimberley AIT's support is fantastic! And it's much cheaper than that offered by other Help authoring tools. You'll find that you will rarely use phone...
Hi, I am evaluating AuthorIT 4.1.0449 and having problems with images. When I paste an image, it is OK. But when I publish it the colors go wrong. Only if I...
Hi, Thanks for your answer. Unfortunatly, it's all right what you write, but if I launch the htmlhelp directly from our application by clicking F1, external...
Hi, Bernhard :-) ... No...but it depends on the calls from the application, and it sounds like that may be the problem. If the Help can't be found, which would...
John, Sorry for the slow response. I've been out of email contact for a week. There is a lot behind what I said earlier - too much to explain in detail here,...
I just tested the AIT 4.0 trail version. The editing functions and everthing seems quite good. I wonder a little about the localisation manager (LM). Each new...
Hi Bernhard I'm coming in late to this discussion, so forgive me if this has been covered... Are you trying to open this linked file from a machine using...
Thanks David, This is the schema I have been mulling over; and in future releases it's probably the right way to do it. There would be a topic that actually...
The problem is solved!!! If the html help is not in the same directory as the application, it is necessary to use a shell_execute command to call the html help...
Hi Kimberley, It was great to meet you in person! Hollywood definitely provided a great setting for the conference (where else can you run into the Rock,...
Not strictly true. There is a registry key - SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Help. Add your help file to it with a full path (as a new value). Then links to your...
Hi Jen, It was great meeting you too! I am working on a proposal as we speak! I need to research server issues and work that into my proposal as well. Since we...
