Simon,
Could there be a permissions problem? Perhaps your index file isn't
readable by you when you're using the Help Viewer? (E.g. if you build as
one user and then run tests as another user.)
If that's not it, please send me a copy of your app, or just outline
exactly the contents of your application package (at least, what
pertains to Apple Help) in email here.

OK, I'm trying to play by the rules and use the built-in Apple Help

to add the help folder to my project and the instructions in...
<file://localhost/Developer/Documentation/Apple Help/Apple Help Reference/

to create an index. After building, I see the files in the proper
places in my app, including the idx file that the Apple Help Indexing
Tool created from my original help folder.
When I request help via my app's Help menu, the Help Viewer app
launches and correctly shows my help file. However, when I try to
search using the Ask button, I get the message "The <my app> help
folder does not contain a searchable index."
Any ideas? What have I missed?
TIA
Simon
