Are you saying you opened a FP form page with Word??
If so, you're much braver than I
| It is definately being published via http, I learned the hard way about FP &
| ftp.
|
| I tried an experiment yesterday and tried opening the form page here at work
| by clicking on the Edit with Microsoft Word, and now I have extra buttons and
| the fields don't do their thing. I didn't even 'Save' the file when I was
| done, I just closed the window, and change font colors is all that I fiddled
| with. Is there any way to tell what is happening to the code to make it not
| work? I've looked at it a hundred times, but I don't know what I'm looking
| for...
