Hi Audrey,
FrontPage is an HTML development toolkit, and it creates HTML documents and
webs. Understanding something abnout HTML will make your job a heck of a lot
easier. There is no "default paragraph spacing" in FrontPage, or in HTML.
There is a paragraph tag (<p>...</p>). There are also other "line break"
tags, most notably the "<br>" tag, which renders a single line break, while
the paragraph tag is interpreted by browsers as a double-line break (for a
new pragraph). Whn you hit the ENTER key in FrontPage, it inserts a
paragraph tag. When you hit SHIFT|ENTER it renders a break tag. FrontPage
has no control over HTML standards, nor how browsers render HTML. It merely
writes the HTML for you (in Normal View).
Hopefully, your book will help you with this and other HTML issues. In the
meantime, you can learn a lot by looking at the HTML view of your page while
you're working with it. Just switch to it from time to time and see what
it's writing. In FrontPage 2003, the Split view makes this even easier. You
can see both the HTML and the design view in the same pane, and when you
highlight an element in either view, it highlights it in the other.

Im waiting on my book to arrive but--Is there a way to golbaly change the
default paragraph spaceing to the same as on line spacing? It seems like
there is not good way to "style" a page or table with a smaller spacing--it
seems to work only when there is existing text, and the text tevt inputted
is back to the large spacing. Also seems like tables don't keep their
styles, in particlar, when more rows/columns are added. Seems like that
would be "the point" of styling a table. No?
