pasting from Word to FrontPage

[Guest]

I am taking text and photo layouts in Word format, then pasting them in
FrontPage 2003. Sometimes it works just fine, other times it scrambles
everything and I am unable to correct it. I also have the same problem when I
type in the text with borders and photos in the desigh mode, but when I
switch to the preview mode I find my work scrambled as before...when I did it
as a copy and paste. Should I be doing all of this in the Notepad mode as
recommended in other posts? I also see a recommendation to use CCS...what is
that please? I have taken over our Church website, and am just trying to
input the data as I get it. Sometimes all goes well, other time I get the
scramble problem...which I do not understand.
Thanks!

Never use word and then paste from word directly into FrontPage. That is what is causing your problems
You need to work directly in design view in FP.

CSS is Cascading Style Sheets.
