I'm a high school teacher and although I am very savvy
with other web development programs I am struggling with
my students who have developed swf's and we want to
insert them but I can't figure out how. I notice on
frontpage XP and 2003 this is simple but how can I show
my students who only have access to Frontpage 2000?
 
You can use " Flasher " download and install from Jimcoaddins it is FREE
http://www.jimcoaddins.com/addins.aspx
This new version uses an updated dialog for selecting Flash movies in your Web site.

Easily add and configure Flash movies (swf files) in FrontPage. All the options you get in
Flash are now available right within FrontPage!
 
Lissa, without using a third party tool, when you 'publish' (not export) the
..swf movie from Flash, choose to also publish an HTML page with it. View the
source code of the HTML page Flash generates and copy all the code in the
<embed> and <object> tags, then insert the code into FrontPage. Make sure to
import the .swf into the web also.

One thing to note with FP 2003, it will prompt for the FlashMX version of
players, even if your .swf is created with Flash 4 or 5 and doesn't require
v.6 to be able to view... besides, now there's a newer viewer v.7. Change
the plugin version of Flash in the code to whatever you're using if
necessary. ex.- 5,0,0,0
