Select All - Editing Frontpage pages

G

Guest

I have not been able to figure out how to move all objects in a Frontpage
page to make an update to the page at the top, e.g., if I want to update a
page with new photos or text, I would like to use the select all feature
(Ctrl-A) as I use it in Powerpoint to move all objects down a bit to add
items at the top of the page. All I get is a black page with "negatives" of
my photos.
I can move multiple "drawing" objects, by selecting them individually, but
cannot select them all... also, I can not select multiple photos I have
inserted; I can only move them one at a time... very annoying. Basically, I
just want to move everything down on a page using a "shortcut" so I can add
additional information at the top of the page.

FP is not PowerPoint, this is how FP works. You can design your page using tables, then all you
would need to do is add a new row at the top, etc.

And to add something at the top of a page, just select your insertion point before the first thing on the page, enter you new stuff
and hit the enter key

Go to the top of the page and press [Enter] key a few times, or the long way
around is to go to codde view to the line below the <body> tag (or where you
wish to insert content) and manually enter a few <p> tags or <br> tags to
enter blank lines. Return to design view and continue what you were doing.

My problem doesn't seem to be listed in the menu and it will not allow me to
ask a new question.
I have transferred data, photos with text boxes using XP, Pub 2003, and the
text boxes are missing, photos are now placed on a new page away from the
data and although I have reformated the pictures they will not allow me to
move them back into the data. Help please. Nancy

Is this Publisher or FrontPage?
If Publisher you can open the newsgroup in Outlook Express by using the
link:
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.publisher
and post a new question there.

If the problem is FrontPage - please rephrase it.
