DOCUMENT:Q187617 11-FEB-1999 [mspress] TITLE :Off97 SBS: MS FrontPage No Longer Available For Download PRODUCT :Microsoft Press PROD/VER: OPER/SYS:WINDOWS KEYWORDS:kbdocerr ====================================================================== --------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Office 97 Integration Step by Step --------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== Chapter 12 of "Microsoft Office 97 Integration Step by Step," deals with publishing Office documents on the World Wide Web, and makes extensive use of a program called Microsoft FrontPage. A note on page 236 states that you can download FrontPage from a Microsoft Web site. However, the Web site does not include an area to download FrontPage. CAUSE ===== Microsoft has recently changed its distribution policies for FrontPage. FrontPage is no longer available as a free download from the Web. WORKAROUND ========== As of June 10, 1998, Microsoft is currently offering a 45-day trial version of Microsoft FrontPage 98. This trial version offers the full functionality of FrontPage, but will expire 45 days after the program is installed. For information on the trial version of FrontPage, please see the FrontPage Web site: http://www.microsoft.com/FrontPage/ NOTE: Because the trial version of FrontPage currently offered is FrontPage 98, not FrontPage 97, there may be some differences between the product and the description in the text. STATUS ====== Microsoft Press has confirmed this to be a problem in "Microsoft Office 97 Integration Step by Step." MORE INFORMATION ================ Correction: Page 236, inline note, change to read as follows: NOTE: You can order a trial copy of FrontPage at: http://www.microsoft.com/FrontPage/ Additional query words: ms_press 1-57231-317-X off97 fp97 fp98 ====================================================================== Keywords : kbdocerr Platform : WINDOWS Issue type : kbbug Solution Type : kbpending ============================================================================= THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE MICROSOFT KNOWLEDGE BASE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
