Hyperlinks with Word2000 as editor in FrontPage - 4/23/2001 18:29:00   
I use Word 2000 to create and edit some of the home pages that are managed by FrontPage2000. So under FrontPage, I can double click an htm file, and Word 2000 will be invoked as the editor.

Problem:
I have a web page called folder1/index.htm
That page has a hyperlink to two word documents in folder1/doc1.doc and folder2/doc2.doc

Frontpage Hyperlinks view of folder1/index.htm show
doc1.doc to be a Word document and doc2.doc to be
file:///d:documents and settings/.../doc2.doc

Hyperlink to doc1.doc behaves as expected. However, if I rename doc2.doc or move it to another folder, FrontPage2000 does not dynamically update the hyperlink in folder1/index.htm. This is an annoyance.

Did I do something wrong with creating the hyperlink to folder2/doc.doc in Word2000 to lose the flexibility?

If you have FrontPage 2000, why not save yourself some anguish and use it to create the pages and links?

This is the root of all the problems. Word is a good - even great, word processor, but a really bad tool for HTML and web development.
