But no home user, or low-tech user is going to ever see SharePoint Designer or VS Express (I don't use either). The old FrontPage filled an important product hole I thought and I really liked it back in 97-98 when it arrived (at least it killed HotDog and similar crap). Then it quietly disappeared and turned up mutated as Expression Web. Now it's gone again. Has Microsoft simply abandoned the product line of "web design apps for home users"? Greg K
