I removed MOTW from all of my projects and rebuilt the output. Still getting the same results. The index search does not automatically advance to the keyword I type in the index search field on the index tab.

By the way, I am producing Webhelp output (not Webhelp Plus). We used to produce HTML Help output from these same projects and had to use Microsoft's Windows Help Compiler to do this merge. I am surprised that Flare does not have a means for doing this without resorting to 3rd-party tools.

I am unable to close a help topic in a .chm file. The close (X) button does not work. This is true for any of the topics in one particular project, whether the topic is accessed on a local PC or on a network. I recompiled the project with no errors. I am even unable to close the topic that displays ...
