SYMPTOMS

When you close FrontPage Editor while you have unsaved pages open, a dialog box in a language other than English may appear.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs if Mfc40loc.dll is installed on the system.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this behavior, rename Mfc40loc.dll. To rename this file, follow these steps.

  1. Close Microsoft FrontPage Explorer and Microsoft FrontPage Editor.
  2. On the Windows Start menu, point to Find, and then click Files Or Folders.
  3. In the Named box, type "Mfc40loc.dll" (without the quotation marks). In the Look in box, click to select the hard drive where you installed Windows. Click Find Now.
  4. Click to select the Mfc40loc.dll file in the Results pane.
  5. On the File menu, click Rename.
  6. Rename the file to Mfc40loc.old and press ENTER.
Note: If Mfc40loc.dll is not on your hard drive, try searching for the file named mfc42loc.dll and repeat the above steps.

MORE INFORMATION

Mfc40.dll is the Microsoft Foundation Class library and is required for FrontPage to run. Mfc40loc.dll provides localized (foreign language) text strings for several dialog boxes. If this file exists, FrontPage will use the localized text strings within this file.
