Formatting functions greyed out

[Gabriel]

(I'm using FrontPage 2002 SP2)

Some of my formatting capability – e.g. paragraph indentation and spacing –
is no longer available to me. With form fields it’s even worse … I can’t do
basic formatting such as altering font size.

The problem has only recently arisen, and it still exists when I create a
new web site, so it appears to be an application problem. Any ideas?

Go here: http://www.95isalive.com/fixes/fpclean.htm and download FP Cleaner ( with Expression Web Designer and
SharePoint Designer support )
Download links are at the bottom of the page.

Close FrontPage
Then run the FPCleaner function that resets the menus and toolbars.


See if it helps.

Thanks very much for the useful tip. However, it failed to clear the problem,
so if anyone has further suggestions it would be appreciated.
(I suppose I could re-install FrontPage, but at the moment that's a last
resort!).

Run a repair install from the help dropdown.
