Office 2007 Professional - Web Editing?

S

Shaun A. Gupta

Going to be getting Office 2007 Professional soon. I know FrontPage is no
longer supported and it's looking like the replacement (SharePoint or
something) is a standalone product (I'm *still* trying to figure out what
exactly that does).

Is there anything in the new Office to edit web pages (ala FrontPage), or do
you need another product?

I may go with CoffeeCup or something if I need to. I don't do a lot of web
page editing, but I need to do the basics.

Thanks!

So essentially Office has no web editing component?

How much does Expression Web cost?

Expressions Web isn't cheap but considering what it can do perhaps it is. You
can get the upgrade instead of the full version which will save you bigtime
since you have FrontPage. It is less than $90 for the upgrade at Amazon.

That's another question I have, actually.

I currently am running Windows XP with Office XP. I'm going to be building
a new system soon with Vista. For upgrade versions to work, does it simply
have to look at the disc, or do you have to install the old software first
(I'd much rather avoid that).

Thanks!

Expression Web does not require that you install FrontPage. If you get
questioned about it all, there is an option where you can just put your
FrontPage installation CD into the CD drive and the installation will
confirm that you can "upgrade" to Expression Web.
