create a pdf from front page

[spence]

i have created a catalog using front page 2002. One page
i have a hover button, in a list of other buttons for
links, that i want to print a particular section of the
page. the page has several lines of text as a heading
and a table (1 row x 2 columns) with links in the left
cell, and about 50 lines of text in the right cell. i
want the user to be able to click this hover button (in
the left cell) to print the heading and the text in the
right cell. If a macro can accomplish this, i would not
mind having macros in this page. my VBA knowledge in
front page is zero, i have some knowledge of VBA for
excel, but have never dabbled with VBA for anything else
but excel. my other question was if this task could be
accomplished by creating a pdf file with the header and
text to be printed from acrobat reader. any advice would
be much appreciated, or if i am going in the wrong
direction with this, a "road map" for this would also be
much appreciated. thanks in advance...spence

Web printing is Page based and you can't run VBA in a browser

Create a page w/ a table containing just the stuff you want to print
Then on your main page use and Include Page set to that print page and a link to the "printable" page (say as a pop up page)

Yes, you need some guidance all right and what you want to do
may not be within your grasp to do yourself.

Where does the page with the hover button run, Intranet or Internet?
Is this a business application or hobby?
