Easy-To-Use Tips For Microsoft
FrontPage
Microsoft FrontPage is a simple
program to use. It is a great
way to build your website. You
don’t have to be a web designer
or guru in order to achieve
success with FrontPage. If you
know how to use other Microsoft
programs such as Microsoft Word
then you have the skills
necessary to use FrontPage.
Let’s take
a look at some easy-to-use tips
for Microsoft FrontPage. First,
there are two things you need to
be aware of when you use
FrontPage. The first thing you
need to know is when in doubt
right click with your mouse.
Let’s say you don’t know how to
modify a specific area of your
website in FrontPage. Right
clicking with your mouse will
give you a drop down box of
potential actions you can take
to modify this area. In other
words, FrontPage will help guide
you to your final goal for the
task at hand.
The second
thing you need to know has to
deal with formatting. If you
push “enter” then FrontPage puts
in a double space. This can be
frustrating because you will
have large gaps between text
lines. Instead, you should use
“shift-enter’ to avoid double
spacing. Shift-enter will
provide a more compact format of
your lines of text.
Let’s take
a closer look at some of the
tools available in FrontPage.
It is helpful to understand the
purpose of these tools so you
can easily navigate and use
FrontPage.
