    Thanks a lot. Now the /internal+ option works. But I have another problem. I do not know what I'm doing wrong. After generating the CHM, when I open the CHM I get a "( Default namespace)" item in the main page - Namespaces page. I do not know why it is coming or how to prevent it. Anything I'm doing wrong? Any help would be much appreciated.

    just installed the March 2007 release and trying to run the batch file (environment variables set and modifications in the batch file to point to proper locations made). The batch file references "ProductionTransformsAddOverloads.xsl", which is not present in the march release...

    got it: missed the batch file in the Examples directory, which is up to date. Nevertheless, the path settings at the beginning of the file reference 'Microsoft Help 2.0 SDK', which is not mentioned to be a prerequisite for Sandcastle. am I wrong...?

    I think it is a problem with MREFBuilder. When I use MREFBuilder with "/Dep:" option and with "/internal+" option I get documentation for an additional empty namespace titled - "( Default namespace)" . Eg: If I alter the sample batch file included to be like this ( assuming I have all the necessay files) - MRefBuilder "c:temp*.dll" /dep:"C:dep*.dll" /out:reflection.org /internal+ I will get an additional namespace documented. You can see the empty namespace in reflection.org, reflection.xml. If I specify  "/internal-" there is no additional empty namespace. Or am I missing something. Any help would be much appreciated as it is holding my deployment of help files for a project I'm doing. Thanks.
