I just bought MS FrontPage 2003.
When I right click on an item working in wysiwyg mode,
and choose cell properties, I get a popup msg box with
options. Problem is the msg box is so tall I can't click
"apply" at the bottom ???

1. solution: Increase you screen resolution in Windows to 1024x768
2. solution: Go to http://officeupdate.microsoft.com/ and search for
updates. Install all available updates.

PS. Regardless of if you do number 1 you should still do number 2 to get
the security updates.

That's a known "issue" with FP 2003. I just drag the status bar down out of the way.

Stop trolling this newsgroup with links to a page that has no bearing on the

Install the latest service pack. (Makes it smaller)
Should then fit in 800x600.

Well I went to the link and followed along as it
said till I got to:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdate/
CD010798661033.aspx
I then clicked the FrontPage 2203 Updates
Downloads > Downloads for Office 2003 > FrontPage 2003
and it says,
"There are no downloads in this category. "
You know this is really ridiculous. I just bought a product
that is 2 freakin years old and it doesn't even work right
out of the box, and now there are freakin hassles downloading
a stupid update. I paid good money for the circus.
What a rip.

The product is as good as the user that uses it. There are plenty of
competitor products out there. Somehow, Microsoft seems to be one of the top
2 contenders when it comes to web dev software. Perhaps the mote is in your
eye, and not in the product?

In any case, "it doesn't work" is not a question, nor does it describe a
problem. If you need help, ask for it. If you want to rant, you're asking
for it.

Well I'm returning the product friend. And I doubt
very seriously I will get any help here. The product
doesn't work correctly. I installed it correctly.
The links given don't take me to a update patch.
And everyone here says I should be thankful
for this product and I'm the problem.'
Whatever.
As far as the flames, I don't sweat it, the people
I work with are rougher than this bunch and
a lot more informative
