FrontPage design view problem

G

Guest

When in design view my cursor slows down and becomes jumpy, also mouse
buttons have to be clicked multiple times to effect anything, yet when I
swith to preview mode there is no problem.

This only occurs in FrontPage - and only in the Design window.

Can anyone shed any light on this please?

Thanks
Dave

FP is design view heavily dependent on IE and your graphics card (see 3 & 4 below)

Have you tried the usual repairs in the sequence below:
1) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all FP Temp Files
Usually in C:\WINDOWS\Temp and %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp
- in FP 2003 you need to look in the super hidden folder
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\FrontPageTempDir
2) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all hidden *.web files
Usually in %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Web Server Extensions\Cache
3) Run a Repair on IE
(see http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=318378 )
4) Install all Service Packs for your OS, IE, MS Office and your Video card
(Windows Update and Office Update sites, plus your video card supplier site)
5) Open FP and Disable or Uninstall any FP Addins,
6) Open your FP Web/Site and run a Tools Recalculate Hyperlinks
