FP is gone but what is the closest replacement? Confused

[xfile]

Hello,

Got a newsletter from MS says FP is about to discontinue -
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA101205221033.aspx

And two new tools will replace FP.

Question is, which one is the closest replacement for FP because I don't
really understand how MS puts the two new tools.

In any case, which of the two or new things can easily managing a web site
(as FP), doing some HTML pages, and certain degree of coding (not
professional coding, of course) such as viewing the code page and
adding/modifying some lines, doing ASP pages with database and so on?

Many thanks in advance.

Unless you are working in a WSS environment you would use EWD

I'm using the Database Results Wizard in FrontPage with an access database.
Do you know if any of the new products will continue to have the DRW in them
and will it still support Access?

According to MS, FP will be discontinued at the second half of 2006.

We certainly can use for years to come, but....

 

[Rob Giordano \(Crash\)]

Yep, but support will continue through 2009.
