I am using RoboHelp X5, which does store the project file as an XPJ
file. I'm still relatively new to this RoboHelp version and had to look
up what an FPJ file is. According to the RoboHelp documentation, there
is an FPJ file for each project folder, including subfolders, and the
FPJ file keeps track of each project folder's contents. Having learned
that bit of info, I'm still not sure what you mean by "running a search
through your FPJ files." Were you perhaps suggesting this in the context
of using RoboHelp's source control feature? We use MS Visual SourceSafe
for our source control. Could you please clarify how you search through
FPJ files and why I might find this helpful?

Thanks,
Amanda

right-click somewhere in the preview window, and select View Source.
You'll see the rlt file name in the Notepad title bar. This file
should disappear when you close the preview.

That said, some versions of RoboHelp a few years ago had an auto save
bug that stored your current version of a topic as the rlt file when
you switched topics in the editor. So if you've used RoboHelp through
many versions, there's a possibility that some of your rlt files are
the topic versions that you want to keep. I guess you could check this
by running a search through your .FPJ files (assuming you have a
recent version of RoboHelp that stores the project as an .XPJ file).>>
