The Layout of FrontPage

The filenames are on the left side

open in the right window. You can make changes in

NORMAL or HTML mode. You can view it in PREVIEW mode.

SAVE changes when done.

Copying Templates The easiest way to make changes is to

edit an already existing file. First copy (EDIT/COPY) the template file. Rename the file (Highlight and Right

Click). Open the renamed file and then make

your changes. When done you can click on the SAVE

button.

Cutting & Pasting from Word

Open your document in WORD. Then Edit/Select All (this will highlight your

entire Word document) Then Edit/Copy Minimize the Word Program Then go to your web page that you wish to

insert this text. Position your cursor in that region.

Then Edit/Paste. Edit to make it look better if necessary. Then SAVE button.

Making Folders in FrontPage

In the Folder List column, highlight the folder that you want to nest another folder inside.

Then File/New/Folder Then rename that folder. For example,

I would have one called ppt for all my PowerPoint presentations.

Transfer Files into FrontPage

Open Windows Explorer and locate your file.

Highlight the file and then Edit/Copy. Minimize Windows Explorer.

Transfer files into FrontPage

Adding a hyperlink Open the page in FrontPage Type the word(s) that you want to

be highlighted for your link. Highlight those words. Then Insert/Hyperlink This will open another dialog box
