Goodbye, FP 2003!

I would love to be able to use this program, but it is way too buggy.
Problems with viewing the site in Design mode. 6 crashes just today. I've
been using FP since 1997 and have never had trouble like this. I'm going back
to FP 2000 until I can get Dreamweaver in here.

Have you tried a detect and repair?

What is the pyschology behind posting in a newsgroup that you're not going
to use FrontPage anymore? I see these kinds of posts all the time and just
don't understand the purpose behind them.

Frustration with what used to be a fine product.

Have you opened the management console and looked in the event logs to see if it gives a reason for
crashing??
It could be something extremely simple.

Must be you and/or your computer then, because I have almost zero problems
with it.

Only if you need and plan to use the new features, is the upgrade needed.
