Identifying the Topic Files

Inside the project file you must create a [FILES] section to list the topic files used in your application. The following example shows the [FILES] section used for the USA.MVP sample:

[FILES]
natext\states_a.rtf ;Arizona
natext\states_c.rtf ;California
natext\states_h.rtf ;Hawaii
natext\states_k.rtf ;Kentucky
natext\states_m.rtf ;Massachusetts
natext\states_n.rtf ;New York, North Dakota
natext\states_t.rtf ;Texas
natext\states_v.rtf ;Virginia
natext\states_w.rtf ;Washington
.
.
.

Each entry specifies the relative path to the source files (in the \NATEXT directory just below the current directory). Paths are relative to the directory given by the ROOT option in the project file, or the directory containing the project file if the project file has no ROOT option. (See “Defining Root Directories” in Chapter 11, “Advanced Build Options,” for more information about the ROOT option.) You can also include comments about each file by starting the comment text with a semicolon (;).

The previous example lists all the topic files used in the sample application. Your project file should list all the topic files you want built into your title. If you have a separate file for popup windows, make sure to list it in the [FILES] section as well.
