FP2000: Word Document Saved in RTF Format Does not Display Headers and Footers in FrontPage

• Microsoft FrontPage 2000

CAUSE

FrontPage uses the same Rich Text converter as Microsoft Word. The Rich Text converter does support the conversion of headers and footers to Hypertext Markup Language (HTML).

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.
