SYMPTOMS

When you try to create a new Web view for a folder using FrontPage Express, you may receive the following error message:

   Couldn't open file
   C:\Program Files\FrontPad\Pages\Folder.tem\Folder.htt.

The Folder.htt file does not exist.

To work around this problem, use Notepad to create a new Web view for a folder. To do so, follow these steps:

1. Click Start, point to Programs, and then click Windows Explorer.

2. Click the folder you want to customize, and then click Customize This

   Folder on the View menu.

3. Click "Create or edit an HTML document," click Next, and then click

   Next.

4. Make the changes you want in Notepad, and then save the document.

5. Click Finish to close the wizard.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the version of Microsoft FrontPage Express included with Internet Explorer 4.0.

The version of FrontPage Express included with Internet Explorer 4.01 does not contain a New Web View Folder Template in the New Page dialog box.

NOTE: The version of Frontpage Express included with both Internet Explorer 4.0 and Internet Explorer 4.01 is 2.0.2.1118.
