Hello List, Is there someone on the List who is familiar with Frontpage 4, and will be able to help Elizabeth? I interjected without checking what she had been using, but am now become aware after checking one of her pages:- http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~gloverhoward/bennett2.htm ... that I will dig myself deeper and deeper into the mire if I continue in offering any advice. That is no reflection on Elizabeth or her pages, as she is just making use of the tools she has, but some of the older MS software can become a nightmare if like me you are not familiar with its peculiarities. Somewhere along the way the conversation that started on the List became one to one, something that I didn't intend.

The version Elizabeth is using is evidently FrontPage 2000. I know Judith still uses that version but not sure who else might be. I no longer have any version of FP installed on my computers. 1999/03 - Microsoft FrontPage 2000 - Version 4 FP should offer the option of Save As under File. Perhaps Judy can check for her. pat http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~gloverhoward/bennett2.htm ... that I will dig myself deeper and deeper into the mire if I continue in offering any advice.

Pat, Thanks for responding. Judy doesn't appear to be "on deck". Yes, Elizabeth did manage to Save the page she was working on and has created another page and needs to link to that from the first page. I don't want to get involved as I'm aware that it needs to be done so that FP can recalculate the links.
