There's probably an error associated with the file that requires a user to manually click a button --- missing fonts, unresolved cross-refs, etc. Basically something in the file or files are broken. You can't generate the book because the program doesn't acknowledge the message.
You can trouble-shoot it by opening the files manually, paying attention to the error messages, and fixing the problem or by opening all the files, ignoring the errors and updating at that point. You shouldn't have errors after they're open. Art On 5/12/06, Suman L Malik <sl_malik at yahoo.com> wrote: > Hello All, > > I am trying to generate the TOC from the book having various chapters.
