Can I change several email hyperlinks on a page at the same time?

I have several email hyperlinks on a web page that link to the same email
address. We have recently changed our email address convention at the office
and I need to change all the email addresses on our website. Is there a way
to have FrontPage search for hyperlinks such as the characters which come
after the @ in an email address and change them all at the same time, site
wide?

Hi,

Yes this can be done..open your site in FrontPage..then do an Edit | Replace
| under find what... type in your old email address | under replace with
type in your new email address | tick "all Pages" | check "find in source
code" | click replace all.

If you have any pages open when you do this..you might need to save them.

Anytime you are doing a large find and replace..it's best to make sure you
have good backups first "Just in Case" :)

A follow up to this..if the visible text portion in your pages..shows the
old email address....you might also need to do an Edit | Replace for that as
well. The first way I mentioned will change the link..but not the text you
see. So doing it again for the text would correct that as well. The major
difference is you wouldn't check the box that says "find in source code"
