Remove Project Folders

Question

I have searched the knowledge base and forums with no luck. I
am probably just not using the proper search words!
I created a main RoboHelp project and as the product has
evolved, I have written the additional documentation in separate
Word docs and imported them into RoboHelp when the time came. Well
the development team has changed the majority of the interface and
now I need to change the documentation that has already been
imported into RoboHelp.
Instead of having to update each topic one at a time, I would
like to remove the folder(s) which contain this specific
documentation from my RoboHelp project. It is easier sometimes to
work in Word and re-import the complete section into RoboHelp than
having to open each topic separately and replace all the graphics.
How do I remove a complete folder(s) from a project? The
structure is as follows:
HTML Files (Topics)
CatalogRequest_files
Images
CatalogRequest_files
Multimedia
CatalogRequest_files
etc...........
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Gilley. You can't delete folders from a RH project in the
same way as you can in Windows Explorer. What you have to do is
delete the contents of the folder first and then delete the actual
folder. By folder contents I mean topics, images, baggage files,
multimedia files and style sheets. You'll see the folder structure
duplicated in each section of the Project tab. Only when everything
is empty can you right click on the folder and select the "Delete"
option.
