KEYWORDS:kbdta

======================================================================
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft FrontPage 97 for Windows 
 - Microsoft FrontPage for the Macintosh, version 1.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For a Microsoft FrontPage 98 version of this article, see Q194263.

SYMPTOMS
========

When you perform a search, your results list contains one or more pages that you
deleted using FrontPage Explorer. If you attempt to load a deleted page, you
receive a message indicating that the page cannot be found.

CAUSE
=====

This behavior occurs because FrontPage maintains pointers to your Web
content--even the content you deleted. These pointers remain intact until you
recalculate links.

RESOLUTION
==========

To resolve this behavior, use either of the following methods.

NOTE: You should try Method 1 first. If Method 1 does not resolve this behavior,
use Method 2.

Method 1: Recalculate Links
---------------------------

1. Open your Web in FrontPage Explorer.

2. On the Tools menu, click Recalculate Hyperlinks.

3. Rerun your search in a Web browser.

   NOTE: You may need to refresh or reload the page in the Web browser.

Method 2: Reset the Dependency Databases
----------------------------------------

To reset the dependency databases used by the FrontPage Search component, follow
these steps:

1. In Windows Explorer, open the folder that contains your Web content. To
   determine where you content is stored, use the following table as a guide

      Web Server               Folder
      -----------------------------------------------------------------

      FrontPage Personal Web Server      \FrontPage Webs\Content
      Microsoft Personal Web Server      \Webshare\wwwroot
      Microsoft Internet Information Server  \InetPub\wwwroot

2. Open the folder that contained the deleted page.

3. Open the \_vti_pvt folder and delete the following two files:

      Deptodoc.btr
      Doctodep.btr

4. Open the \_vti_txt\default.wti folder. Delete the following files:

      All.cat
      All.dct
      All.doc
      All.fmt
      All.fn
      All.hl
      All.idx
      All.inv
      All.src

5. Switch to FrontPage Explorer.

6. On the Tools menu, click Recalculate Hyperlinks.
