Slow formation of hyperlinks

[KC4COP]

I have been using FrontPage 2000 up until about 2 months
ago. I then installed the FrontPage 2002 Update package.
Imediately the time it takes to open the hyperlink wizard
when from 2 or 3 seconds with FrontPage 2000 to
approximately 45 seconds with FrontPage 2002.

I uninstalled both programs > then installed ver. 2000 and
formed several hyperlinks - taking 3 seconds or so for the
hyperlink to form.

When I added ver. 2002, hyperlink formation started taking
about 45 seconds again.

Please help

By wizard - presume you mean Insert Hyperlink Dialog
That uses a MS office shared dialog
Have you recently done a cleanup of your all your temp files and a defrag
Also Have you tried the usual repairs
1) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all FP Temp Files
2) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all hidden *.web files
3) In Windows Explorer Find and delete the file CMDUI.PRF
4) Disable or Uninstall any FP Addins
5) Run a Repair / Reinstall on FP & IE
6) Install all Service Packs for your OS, IE, and MS Office

If you Click Start then Run and type frontpg.exe /safe
Does the FrontPage 2002 Hyperlink Dialog behave as you expect?
