> 8 Generating WinHelp > 8.2 Setting up a WinHelp project > 8.2.6 Deciding whether to regenerate the WinHelp project file
When you use Mif2Go to generate WinHelp from within FrameMaker,
Mif2Go writes an .hpj
project
file during set-up, and rewrites it later only under certain conditions.
To specify whether Mif2Go should generate the .hpj
project file anew each time you run
the conversion:
; WriteHelpProjectFile = Yes (write each time) or No; if no setting,
; write only if the file does not already exist.
The values you can specify for WriteHelpProjectFile
have the following effects:
If the configuration file contains no |
Mif2Go closes the .hpj
file
after writing it; however, if you had the .hpj
file open in Help Workshop when Mif2Go rewrote it, you could get an access violation.
(Notepad would just rewrite the old file over the rewritten one.)
If you set WriteHelpProjectFile=Yes
and then later decide to modify the .hpj
file,
be sure to set WriteHelpProjectFile=No
; otherwise
your edits will be wiped out the next time you convert.
If you use Help Workshop to make changes that
are not reflected in the configuration file, and they are changes you
want to keep, you can prevent Mif2Go from overwriting them by setting WriteHelpProjectFile=No
.
