FrontPage folder view

Has anyone come across this problem before.
When I open a website, and then click on Folders view the
file names, titles, sizes etc. are not displayed, all
that I can see are the icons.
Any idea how I can sort this out, i think it may have
something to do with my Expolrer settings??

Thanks
Nic

Several users have reported this problem if they had the BETA installed and uninstall it
(seems the uninstall does not clean out some registry entries)

Try the below registry edit before you repair/reinstall MSO XP/ FP 2002

Find the key
hkcu/software/microsoft/frontpage/explorer/fp explorer/settings

Any of the values listed in here that start with the number 5 should be
deleted. This will reset all of the column widths, etc, but it will get the
filenames and any other problems resolved.
There should only be one or two for folder view, but any view that was
used/modified with a beta version of FP2003 could be affected.

PS
Also delete all FP Temp and *.web files before opening FP2002, then run a Tools Recalculate Hyperlinks

Click Start > Run and type regedit
and click ok

Specifically it is here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\FrontPage\Explorer\FrontPage
Explorer\Settings

And I believe the Value you need to clear is: FilesDetailColumns

Right click FilesDetailColumns, select Modify, clear the info under
"Value Data" click Ok, close regedit and relaunch FrontPage.
