Get SharePoint Designer 2007 .. it acts like expression web 1 .. but it has still quite a few of the fp bots and SharePoint ..you ignore the SharePoint features and the fp bots if you are no longer using them. whilst getting the benefit of the error reporting other features such as global find and replace split view dwts ... and other stuff... its just another tool... if you don't like to use it as your web editor .. use it as one gigantic find and replace tool at the very least.. you would use a third party tool if that got the job done so why not spd07? and you can open your site in either application you dont have to remove any previous fp version .. just dont open the site at the same time in both (but as always make a backup in fp first... i have never had a problem moving between the applications but one should always prepare) its f r e e - http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepointdesigner/FX100487631033.aspx of course if you want to continue to use the equal of your grandmothers washing board and not the nice new automatic washers for sale don't let me stop you using the equal of the wash board ... FrontPage 2002 for the equal of the auto washer - ew 3 ;) btw look at my sig line! if you do get it be sure to set it up first the ebook for ew1 is the one to use for sharepoint designer 07 http://any-expression.com/expression-web/ebooks/setting-up-expression-web-ebook.htm using the internet for me has always been about learning ... the reason I keep learning is because I want fire my neurons frequently and also if a job is worth doing its worth doing well ... I don't care that my current site at any point in time is always better than the last one but not as good as the next one ... if I can look back over the year and say hey I learnt something and it has stuck in my head... I feel good.. another reason why I help others with ew fp and web design .. helping others helps yourself... other people's problems and projects server as real time challenges and its always always much better to have a real challenge instead of a made up one. plus one's information is no good if certain readers because they are using older browser.. can't read it .. or disabled visitors.. which is why its ALWAYS a good idea to get your code looking good. You don't always want to eat that elephant but sometimes its necessary whatever you are applying it too... and thats what got me here in the first place <grin> however not everyone agrees ... so we shall agree to disagree:) Tina Expression Web Xmas/NY Giveaway 23rd Dec - 15th Jan http://www.frontpage-to-expression.com/expression-web-giveaway.html
