Frontpage Question

[John N. Packard]

When I import documents into Frontpage:<BR>a - is interpreted as B<BR>an ' is interpreted as =<BR>a left " is interpreted as A<BR>a right " is interpreted as @<BR>Is there a way to avoid this nuisance?<P>jnp

John, <BR>I'm a little baffeled. I've used Front Page for quite some time and never had it do that. In fact, importing documents seems to be one of the few things it really does easily. Tonight, I can't get it to post a picture from my scanner for love or money, but it imported text from a huge email attachment flawlessly. Go figure.<P>Chuck Conrad<P>Chuck Conrad

Chuck,<BR> It seems to be documents that I generate in Wordperfect that are the problem. Frontpage seems to interpret these troublesome characters as special WP typographic symbols. If I go into the HTML code I am able to delete them. It's a nuisance and of course I always miss a few!<P>jnp

[Guest Chuck Conrad]

It's probably Microsoft's subtle way of telling you that you should be using Microsoft Word to compose your documents!<P>Chuck

Wont WordPerfect say a doc in HTML format?<P>Import THAT into Frontpage, will probably do the trick.<P>Peter<P>------------------<BR>Peter Gariepy<BR>peterg@aaca.org<P>www.aaca.org

Peter,<BR> That's a good suggestion. It's in the conversion to HTML that things are going awry. I'll try it tonight!<P>jnp
