Introduction
Once you've become familiar with Microsoft Office FrontPage 2003 and all the features it contains, you might want to customize the way you work with FrontPage. You can change the way FrontPage starts up and whether it warns you about certain actions that you cannot undo. You can also configure FrontPage to associate editors on your computer with a specific file type you want to use, which makes it easy to open and work and with the files, or specify options to determine what information appears in reports.
You can set general options to specify when files are considered "Recent" or "Older", or the download time that qualifies a Web page for inclusion in the Slow Pages report. You can also set the connection speed, display row and column gridlines when viewing reports, and the maximum number of months shown in usage reports.
You can change the configuration of the menus and toolbars that you use. You can also create your own toolbar or menu for just the commands that you use when creating and formatting your pages. The Language bar performs a variety of functions. The Language bar allows you to control FrontPage with your voice, or execute various commands without having to use the keyboard. FrontPage will need to be trained to your voice in order to perform the voice recognition. You can also dictate text directly into your documents with the speech recognition feature. Or maybe, you want to add handwritten notes to a document.
Macros can simplify common repetitive tasks that you use regularly in FrontPage. Macros can even reside on a FrontPage toolbar for easy access. If a macro has a problem executing a task, FrontPage can help you debug, or fix the error in your macro.
