With its intuitive interface (especially if you've already done time with other Microsoft applications), you can soon be creating hyper-linked pages to your heart's content. Formatting, inserting graphics or sounds, and keeping track of all your pages is push-button simple--experiment all you want, and retreat when necessary (some colour schemes can induce nausea). The package also allows easy use of ActiveX controls, plug-ins, and Java applets--as well as more traditional scripting features--to snazz up your site for the higher-bandwidth viewer.

The integration between Office software, new with the 2000 edition, means you can easily publish information stored in an Access database or Excel spreadsheet without suffering through the nightmare of cutting, pasting, and reformatting. Whether you want to trade Beanie Babies or find new readers for your poetry, Microsoft FrontPage 2000will help you present yourself in the best possible light. --Rob Lightner

Manufacturer's Description
Microsoft FrontPage 2000 gives users everything they need to easily create and manage great Web sites. FrontPage 2000 was developed to take the best features of award-winning FrontPage 98, make them even easier than before, and add to them new features that customers have requested. FrontPage 2000 makes it possible for everyone to create rich, great-looking Web sites with improved ease of use and productivity for all users. FrontPage 2000 gives users control of their Web sites like never before. They can position elements exactly where they want them on the page, give their Web site a professional and consistent look across all of its pages, import and edit HTML just as they like, and use the latest in Web technology.FrontPage 2000 allows users to create engaging Web sites that look and work exactly the way they want them to. FrontPage includes the ability to lay out pages with exacting care, and design the pages with elements that color coordinate, with innovative features like Dynamic HTML and Cascading Style Sheets that add style, movement, and interest to pages. For the first time, FrontPage 2000 combines the easiest to use WYSIWYG editor with HTML source preservation and new HTML editing productivity tools. FrontPage 2000 allows users who author in a text editor and know HTML to create code faster, and create code that is formatted just the way they want. This is a breakthrough for HTML authors who want to preserve their formatting and authoring preferences, or for those who want to switch back and forth between multiple HTML editors without unnecessary formatting changes. One of the most common requests for feature enhancements in FrontPage is the ability to take database queries and easily incorporate them into FrontPage-based Web pages. With FrontPage 2000, this becomes much easier, and users can even create Web sites with pages where the data is updated when the user enters the page or refreshes it. This provides the user with the latest information at all times, and saves the Webmaster from having to keep re-posting fresh snapshots of the database. FrontPage 2000 allows users to create Web sites that sizzle with more than just plain HTML. They can take advantage of the latest Web functionality by using the pre-built Web components that FrontPage ships with, buying third-party add-ons, or using its new programmability features, such as Visual Basic for Applications, to easily create add-ons of their own.
