Open Other Project - Does Not Function

Question

Hello -
We are finishing a CBT lesson in Cap 3 which includes 29
seperate projects. At the end of each project the student is
presented a button to take them to the next project, i.e. "Open
Other Project".
Here lies the issue, we have set this button to "Open other
project" and "Open URL or file". In both case the next project does
not open. The user is taken to an internet search page. We set up
the button "On Success" feature using the Captivate Help files
where it instructs you to remove all of the system paths and just
use the project or file names. Also confirmed button settings in
Advanced Interaction.
We are publishing our projects in .exe formats. This isuue is
present when we preview it using the preview feature and from the
.exe products.
What are we doing wrong, any ideas?

Hi again
I just conducted a brief test using a Button object and the
exact file names you listed. Things worked as expected on my end.
This is actually good news, as it suggests Captivate 3 isn't to
blame. Instead, something is wonky with your project(s).
One thing that strikes me here is that you say you are seeing
a Web Browser open. This suggests your button is programmed to
"Open URL or File" and not "Open other project". You may wish to
double check that. If you examine it and it already says "Open
other project", you may wish to delete that button and insert a new
one. Maybe somehow it became corrupt and is retaining the Open URL
or File setting and not respecting the Open other project setting.
Cheers... Rick
