    - Forms and Calculated Fields Hi, I have a FrontPage Form with a bunch of questions. I have also setup a confirmation page - no problems. The confirmation page has confirmation fields. Depending on the end-user's selection the confirmation fields may say "CORRECT!!". MY QUESTION: a. Is it possible to create an additional field that can count the number how many times the word CORRECT!! is the confirmation field result? b. if the above is not possible, is there a FrontPage Testing template or Testing or calculation field Add-in that can be sourced or purchased? --- Currently I am asking my end user to count the number of times the word "CORRECT!!" is the result, and add them up to find out their total score. Thanks very much for your help. Lucille Tag: Force files to download only, not view in browser Tag: 37710

    - SQL UPDATE problem with FP database wizard I'm trying to do an SQL UPDATE on an Access database using the FP database wizard. The database connection is working OK, using the wizard to do lookups works fine. The SQL query I'm putting into the wizard is: UPDATE users SET activated = 1 WHERE (user = ::user::) ::user:: is a form field "user", which I have tried passing to the page containing this script using both GET and POST. However, all I get is this error: Database Results Error Your page contains a query with user input parameters that could not be resolved. This could happen if your DatabaseRegionStart webbot has an empty or missing s-columnnames or s-columntypes attributes. You may need to read Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 817029. Article 817029 refers to FrontPage 2003, which I am NOT using, I'm using FrontPage 2002, and the server is Windows 2000 SP4 running the default FP server extensions, I haven't upgraded them. If I change the ::user:: to "0" in the SQL string, the error goes away but of course I get "No records returned". Can anyone help? Tag: Force files to download only, not view in browser Tag: 37703

This never happened with the earlier version. Even though I eventually see all that I've typed the few second delay drives me nuts. The larger the file/page the longer the delay. I know there could be more critical problems/bugs to deal with but this one is annoying none the less. Thanks. Tag: Force files to download only, not view in browser Tag: 37689

    - A question about graphics hyperlinks. I've scanned the NG, and can't seem to find an answer to my problem... Okay. I'm a semi-newbie with FrontPage, and I currently use FrontPage 2000, and I'm having a problem! I wanted to add a hyperlink to one of my pages (to another page,) and went to the page, itself, in mozilla, and saved the index.htm file that I wanted to append to, to a different file on my hard drive than the original folder containing all my web design files. When I opened it up to edit it in Front Page, all the image hyperlinks had been reverted back to the directory in which I saved the index.htm file. I did my revisions, and then saved it, uploaded it, then checked it out in mozilla. Apparantly, all the image hyperlinks had been linked to where FP saved it on my hard disk. (specifically, to the index_files sub-folder that was created by mozilla in the folder where I saved the page to my hard drive.) My question is this: Can I do a "mass change" on the url directory in which all my images are in, instead of having to go back through every image (about 30) and change the link? Is there any way to do it all in one process? Thanks in advance! Adam D. Vanover Tag: Force files to download only, not view in browser Tag: 37645

    - ASP bookmark woes I'm getting a little desperate here... I've built an .asp page using Frontpage 2003 that contains an alphabet list of hyperlinks that will (ideally) connect to bookmarks inside of a table containing a list of countries - one country per table cell. The problem I'm having is that the links jump down the page just fine from within the Frontpage preview window, but do not work when previewing in a browser (I.E. 6.0 in my case). I can convert the page to .html and the links work just fine - however I do have example pages on our corporate intranet that seem to be effectively using bookmarks with .asp pages, so it seems to be possible. I've compared the source code for these pages against the source for my page (as generated by Frontpage) and see no differences in syntax. I'm limited to .asp when designing pages for our intranet, so I can't simply change formats. I'm at the end of my rope - any suggestions would be very welcome. (I cannot include a link as this page lives on our intranet - I could perhaps paste the code into a message...) Tag: Force files to download only, not view in browser Tag: 37638

I don't know all the "terminology" to explain all this, and everything was working fine, so maybe something happened to prevent my server from recognizing my computer in uploading, or is there a glitch in Frontpage 2002 that caused this?

    - FP2003: Open Method on Web Object not leveraging UserName / Password parameters I'm working on a Visual Basic .NET application that leverages the FrontPage object model to pull information from two remote servers. When I make a call to the Open method on the Webs object, I pass in a valid username and password for the web. However, when the first real method against the resulting Web object is executed, the FrontPage window appears and prompts the user with the following message: "You do not have permission to do this operation. Ask your web site administrator to change your permissions and then try again, or log on with a user account that has this permission. To log on with a different user account click OK." The user account that is passed through the Open method does have sufficient permissions (Administrator rights), and if I re-enter the username and password in the dialog after clicking OK, it works just fine. I'd like to prevent this from popping up if at all possible. Any thoughts on why it isn't leveraging the credentials passed in the Open method? --- Code Snippet --- Private _fpApplication As FrontPage.Application Private _stagingWeb As FrontPage.WebEx ...

    - Add Adobe Documents Hi, I'm pretty new to FrontPage. I would like to add Adobe documents to my website. Does anyone have a "how to" document that can explain this? Or, some instructions that can get me started? Thanks Tag: Force files to download only, not view in browser Tag: 37555

Is there a way with a FrontPage file link to force that
file to download only without being able to view? My
situation is that I have Word files on my website that I
want my users ONLY to download - not open in the IE Word
viewer. Can this be done? I do not want to create zip
files for downloading. I want the Word files in their
native format, but only downloadable, not viewable in the
browser. Thanks.
