[Closed] Making HTML Catalog

I assume I'm just doing something wrong, I remember doing this last year but can't get it to work now. I created a folder in the finder and put all the photos I want to catalog in it. I opened GC Browser and selected that folder and selected all the photos in it and then selected the File->Catalog->HTML item and filled out how I wanted the catalog to look and saved my preferences and then said OK and chose where I wanted the html to be written and nothing happened. I have tried this in 9.76 which is registered and the latest 10 that is not registered and they do the same thing. Once I got GC to create the support arrow files and directories but nothing else and now that isn't even working.

I really shouldn't answer my own question but this may be a bug. I discovered that besides the pull down menu under File that Catalog had it's own pull down on the Toolbar. That Catalog-HTML worked fine on the Toolbar. So if both are suppose to do the same thing the one under File menu is broke.

Catalog from the toolbar icon creates a catalog from the selected items.
Catalog from the menu ask for the folder of the source images.
Did you select it?

Yep that was the problem. It wasn't obvious to me that it was asking for a source folder and I missed it in the manual.
Maybe a message saying Source and Save for the two popup file windows. If I had not been in the browser it may have been more obvious to me.
Thanks
