* on page immediately after opening

I have just removed the top border from my pages and entered a graphic into
the top left corner. On opening a page the file name has * after before I
have altered anything. If i save and close it, then re-open it, it happens
again. Anyone got any idea why

With FrontPage closed use windows search and find and delete all files named *.web and *.tmp

The open FrontPage and see if it's fixed.

no temp files, but on searching for .web I got tonnes. a
bit wary of deleting though i have pasted one folder
source below cos it doesn't seem right that I should be
deleting office data files!!

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application
Data\Microsoft\Web Server Extensions\Cache

That's fine - mine are in C:\Documents and Settings\Kathleen\Application
Data\Microsoft\Web Server Extensions\Cache

It's OK to delete the files in that folder that end in .web

THERE IS NO .WEB IN THE FILE NAMES THEY ARE JUST OFFICE
DATA FILES, I ASSUME THEY WERE FOUND VIA THE SEARCH
UTILITY BECAUSE THE FOLDER THEY ARE IN CONTAINS THE WORD
WEB!!

Please don't shout - turns off your Caps Lock key.

The files in that folder that end in .web *are* Office Data files and it is
safe to delete them.

For example, on my PC I have a file named localhost_80_easthampton.web in
the folder called C:\Documents and Settings\Kathleen\Application
Data\Microsoft\Web Server Extensions\Cache easthampton is the named of the
web on my PC that I just opened in FrontPage.

I delete these files on a regular basis, as do most of the FrontPage MVPs
(and I imagine a number of other FP users do the same thing).

Are you using FP2003, and are there any behaviours or Interactive Buttons
being used on the page in a shared border or FP Include?
If this is the case, then the appearance of the * is normal. When you open
the page in Design View in FP2003, the JavaScript behind the behaviours is
re-inserted into the page, thus causing the page contents to change and the
* to appear.
