Deleting a TOC

Unread post by Sheri Steeves »

Hello,

I've created a secondary TOC in my project that links to topics in my main TOC. When I try to delete this secondary TOC (I don't need it anymore), it prompts me with the delete entries dialog. I don't want to delete the topics as they are used in my main TOC.

How do I delete the secondary TOC I created?

Hi Sheri,

Finding the solution directly after you post a question about it is a well-known and reliable phenomenon. Happens to me all the time. 8) But just to confirm: Deleting TOC entries won't delete the associated topic files if there are still other entries pointing to that topic file. However, it will if they are the only entries pointing to those files.
