    FrontPage Express - cut & paste

    Hello

    I have Win. 98

    It seems I cannot use cut & paste on this program

    Is there something I can do to be able to cut & paste

    Many Thanks (still learning)

    Are you trying to cut & paste in the normal window or in the html code? If its in the view html you need to use the keyboard shortcuts.
    • CTRL+C Copy
    • CTRL+X Cut
    • CTRL+V Paste

    On your website you should be able to view the code in your site editor so you can copy it.
    You need to go up the top to view/html in frontpage express. This will open the html code window so you can see it all. You can't use right click in this window so you need to copy your code from the website, click where you want to paste it in the html window and use the CTRL and V keys on your keyboard to paste them in. Click ok at the bottom of the html window and then save the changes File/save. You may have to close then reopen the page to see the changes, its been a while since I used it so I cant remember.

    Hi Tassie Devil

    I followed your 2nd instructions and it worked OK
    One thing, I got 3 copies, most likely because when I selected OK on the View HTML page I went back and saved again twice.

    Also one needs to cleanup some duplicate code but its quite easy.

    Another question. Can I link pages the normal way in FPE if I have three or four pages on the same subject ?.

    Thanks for your help.

    You are very welcome.
    Yes you can create links the normal way in FPE. Just go to insert/hyperlink or hold down the CTRL and K keys. Type in the link and text and hit ok.
