After the learning curve, I am finally getting the hang of it. However, I just finished my help file and compiled it with hcw.exe (in the Borlandhelptools directory), and now when I try to reopen my project I am getting the error 'Project rule not found'. What does that mean? I am not super worried about it, since I did backup my project before I did this, but I want to know how I can get around this error, and how to correct it.

Open your project file and see if there's a PROJECT = and $(PROJECT): section. What's listed under those sections? Now, open your intact backup project file, and find those same two sections. Does what's listed under them differ between the two project files? -- YH -- -- Any e-mail sent to me from the newsgroups will be ignored.

Your project's BPR file was probably modified somehow and is no longer formatted correctly.

Thanks I'd say that the file was saved in UNIX format (CR) instead of DOS format (CRLF). You may want to use a tool like unix2dos to fix that.

If you open the project in NotePad, it can sometimes add some characters to the start of the project file which means that BCB cannot open it HTH Pete Quote: i am making my first help file.
