raysmith@swbell.net Posts: 1 Joined: 3/2/2007 Status: offline	Moving FrontPage to Vista - 3/2/2007 20:42:17 I have been using FrontPage 2002 for a few years to maintain our groups WEB site. Now I have just bought a new Vista computer. I have installed FrontPage 2002 and loaded my backup (form USB drive) of my WEB directories. (I had just XCOPYed all the directories and subdirectories from My Documents). But when I try to open these copied files on my new computer I don't see the shared borders or thel ink menus in those borders. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for your help.

I'm not sure that FP2002 works on Vista, a lot of software doesn't. I'll have a look round and see if I can find out for sure. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is.

There are quite a few reports about FP2002 and 2003 shutting down when you insert a hyperlink. They've submitted bug reports but whether anything will be done given Expression is now the current product. The only thing I can suggest is Make sure you open the site as a site File>open site. Try recalculating the hyperlinks and see if that will help. Make sure you have all the folders, including the hidden ones. FP sets up stuff like _borders but you can't see them in FP folder view. You only see them in Explore if you have it set to show hidden files and folders. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is. GAWDS Now where did I put that Doctype?

If you have already published the website, and it still works, you can do a reverse publish back to your computer. _____________________________ Arizona Website Design - Website Design in Arizona (in reply to jaybee)
