Can I add multiple linked documents to an existing project?

Can I add multiple linked documents to an existing project without breaking the project?
The project I'm working on is due to go live in just a little over a month. I've recently acquired some training materials that contain information that needs to be merged into the help file. The problem is that there is not enough time to do it, get it reviewed, and so on.
So I had this idea of linking to the Word docs (there are 3) for now, then cleaning things up as we go along.
Is that a stupid idea this late in the game?
Would it be better to create a separate help file with just those docs and then merge the projects into a master project?
I am using RoboHelp 9 and Word 2010.

I don't think the idea in itself is silly but I think there might be a nicer solution.
Link the documents to a new project. How is described on my site. Alternatively import them.
Once you have got the topics looking how you want, then import them into your main project. You then have the topics ready to edit later on but for now they can go as they are.
Backup your main project before you start the import so that you can backtrack if you want to.
The TOC will not come in automatically this way but you'll likely want to add the new stuff manually anyway. Alternatively you can import the TOC and then append it.

  • How can I save multiple links using the "save link as" function?

    I'm trying to save about 300 pdf files. The link to each one is listed ona website. To save each one I'm right clicking on the link, selecting "save link as" and repeat.
    How can I select multiple links and save them?

    Actually you can save multiple page pdf's in elements.
    Try something like this:
    (This is easier if you have the project bin open)
    1. Select the first page
    2. Right click on that page in the project bin and choose Add Blank Page or as many pages as you need.
    3. Use the move tool and drag your pages down into the blank pages in the project bin
    4 Then File>Save As>Acrobat.PDF

  • How can I add multiple email addresses to Address Book?

    How can I add multiple email addresses to Address Book?
    Can it be done from an .xlsx file?

    I have tried that, but the system reads the emails as one long email and I can't find any way of separating them - it ignores spaces, colons and I have also tried putting them through a word doc... still does not work. It works perfectly easily on a PC system!! ( I have just moved to a mac!)
    any ideas would be good
    thanks

  • How can I add multiple contacts to a text message on a droid bionic

    How can I add multiple contacts to a text message on a droid bionic?

    DH
    I was thinking that if he wanted to create multiple keyframes he might be creating a repeated effect rather than manipulating values that are shot specific - like creating an oscillation or some repeated step effect.  If he was creating keyframes specific to his content he'd probably not look for a way to do it "quickly" since each keyframe would require manipulation of specific values. 
    So my thought was to generate the series of keyframes on a dummy clip created for this specific purpose, copy the clip, paste attributes (maybe turn off "Scale Attribute Times") and add bunches of keyframes at once. 
    Still, you're right, it's tough to divine the intent of someone very new to FCP.  His question could be based on a misunderstanding about the use of keyframes.

    can v create multiple billing document from delivery with single line item

    Dear Sandesh
    Go to VOV7, select your item category.  In this maintain K  for Billing Relevance
    Now go to VF01, give the delivery number and do not press Enter.  Instead click on Selection list on the next screen, select the items you want to bill and click copy and continue if necessary
    thanks

  • Can I add a Pages document to an iPhoto journal?

    I have created an iPhoto journal from photos taken at my high school graduation. Can I add a Pages document listing our deceased classmates to this journal?

    I see your question has remained unanswered for a while now. I suggest you experiment around with copy/paste to see how text from the Pages app might work on a journal. Please report back with how you make out.

  • How can I add multiple, successive destinations in "Maps" such as on a delivery trip with several stops ?

    How can I add multiple, successive destinations in"Maps" such as on a delivery trip with multiple stops and so needing driving directions i.e. set up a route ?

    Maps help:
    Mark a location with a pin
    You can drop a pin on a location to get directions or help you find it again. 
    Open Maps
    On your map, go to the location you want to mark with a pin.
    Choose View > Drop Pin. If the pin isn’t exactly where you want it, put the pointer on it and hold down the button until the pin “hops.” Drag the pin into place, then release the button.
    To see information about a location, click its pin, then click the Info button. To close the Info window, click outside of it.
    To remove a pin, select it, then choose View > Clear Pin.
    Get directions
    Using Maps, you can get directions to help you navigate on foot or behind the wheel. Once you've decided where you're going, click the Share button to send your map and directions to your iPhone. (Your iPhone must have iOS 7 and be signed into the same iCloud account as your Mac.) 
    Open Maps
    Do one of the following:
    Click Directions to open the directions sidebar, then enter the starting and ending locations.
    On the map, click a pin to display its info banner, click the info button to see more info, then choose “Get Directions.” (If your starting location doesn't have a pin, you can Control-click or tap it with two fingers, then choose Drop Pin.)
    Click either the car (driving directions) or person (walking directions).
    If multiple routes appear on the map, click the one you want to take.
    To zoom in on a turn, click it in the directions sidebar.
    To close or reopen the directions sidebar, click Directions in the toolbar.

  • Safari adds multiple links to read later list

    Whenever I click add to reading list it adds multiple links of the same one. Then the old one eventually gets replaced by the newest reading list which is added. When I click clear all the screen that says click to add to reading list appears and still has the old reading list links in the background. I have tried restarting Safari, emptying cache, clearing history, and restarting the computer and its still there.

    It was not a problem with Safari. It was my not having their second level security url in my Preferences. Once they gave it to me, I set it in my 'always allow' cookies settings. That allowed me access to all secure sites.
    I'm still having to use Firefox until they resolve their known issue with Safari.
    The software tech I worked with is not a Mac person so he had to consult with his Mac software developer to get the issue resolved. I told him there are a lot of us (Mac users) out here and they're going to have to include us in their plans. There are also PC folks out there with an iPhone using Safari.
