Installing xp professional with frontpage

If you have not used it before, your excel might not be installed properly. try cto check if you are accessing excel viewer.

if so, you might need to insert installer disk again and re-install/fix the excel program.

Like you I use Windows 7, and can tell you instantly that some older Microsoft programs do not work with Win 7, whilst some other ones do. If you have Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate you can try running Frontpage in Administrator and Windows XP compatibility mode.

Windows 7 Professional and Ultimate instructions:

A. Right Click on the Program name if installed (Could also try with install too if not installed)
B. Click on 'Properties'
C. Select 'Compatibility Mode'
D. Try using the different 'Compatibility Modes'. I would try 'Windows XP Service Pack 1' first, if this does not work, try 'Windows 98'
E. Click 'Apply' then 'OK'

F. Right click on the program name that you selected compatibility mode for above, and select "Run as Administrator"
G. Follow any further instructions


If this does not work, then it will probably be cheaper to find a used newer version on a site like eBay. Note that Frontpage 2002 has Windows 7 issues too, so please check out the following links.

Good Luck

If you have the instalation CD, then I recommend that you uninstall office, restart your computer and reinstall office. That way, any corruption is eliminated. If that is too drastic for you, you could try to repair Office, but that may not eliminate the corruption. Your choice. Best of luck.

download the full installer of MS Office XP

FrontPage is not downloadable software

Do you have a CD OR Installation files of office? If yes then run the setup and repair your office installation.

Frontpage has been discontinued by microsoft. You wouldn ow use visual studio, if you google visual studio 2009 there is a free version that is very nice.

sir,
i am using reinstalation original cd which i have purchased with second hand old used computer. i have got 25 digit key with this but after installation on taskbar appears a key that 30 days left for activation. asking 42 digits confirmation id no. which not possible to get with second hand 4years old computer. so please try if possible.
thanking you,

Although you do not need office to install Front Page, It is highly recommended.

You do, however, need to have all of your UPDATES installed before you install it.
Please make sure you have SP1, SP2 and SP3 installed.

Let me know if this has solved your problem.

Thanks

<grin> Had this problem years ago and it really frustrated me.
- Open the Control Panel - Open Folder Options Click on File Associations tab
Go down to the .doc extension listing and . . . change it to Word or WordPad if you don't have MS Word installed.
