File not found: addin_a.brs File not found: addin_a.ali AssistEdit_12pix.gif is not present in the Shared folder and could not be copied. DrillDown_12pix.gif is not present in the Shared folder and could not be copied. DropDown_12pix.gif is not present in the Shared folder and could not be copied. Lookup_12pix.gif is not present in the Shared folder and could not be copied. The master stylesheet was copied from the \Shared folder GATE failed to find the following in Object.txt: T_12345678 R_12345678 B_12345678 T_12345678_1 T_12345678_2 Anyhelp would really be appreciated.

I have had some experience with compiling help files for Navision, and I can explain most of this as good errors. :slight_smile: The first two are the Browse Sequence and Alias files, which won’t generally be created if you aren’t creating browse sequences or aliases, but the template project has them as part of the project. I have had problems removing references to them from within Robohelp, so I either manually edit the .hhp file before I run GATE or just get Robohelp to create blank versions of the files. These errors don’t cause any problems. Same for the *.gif images. The 3.70 Gate tool wants to bring in the *.gif images by default from the /Shared folder, but it is nothing to worry about if they are not there. If you have access to the full source of the help files from your MBSCO (I can’t find mine at the moment), they will be located in the file likely named Base.Exe, a self extracting zip file with all of the help file source. Just put these files in your /Shared folder and the error goes away. As for the “Gate failed…” messages; buried deep in the HTML help files are references to these replacement tags that you will have to hunt down and replace as needed with the appropriate tag from the object.txt file. Thankfully, Robohelp ha a great multi-file search and replace to assist. These look like the IDs that the sample help pages use, so you can probably just get rid of the sample items. Hope this helps.
