CHMs renamed. Editing external links .

[uwem]

For 10 years we used the same names for the chms but for new software generation it was decided to rename them.
Within a chm-project there are numerous topics with interfile links with old adresses. Is there a possibility in MadCape 7 to get an overview of links in topics? Is there an easy possibilty to rename the old chm-name to the new one? At the moment I go through all topics and have a look on the hyperlink to edit. If it is linked to an external chm I change as described in MC7 help.

You can view all links from (or to) a topic by using the Link Viewer (View > Link Viewer).

You can also create a report to show all of these links in your project; create a report and tick External links.

Is there an easy possibilty to rename the old chm-name to the new one?

You can do this by using a find and replace.
On the Find and replace pane, enter the old and new filenames, select Find in - (whole project), tick Find in source control; then click Start to start the search.
