FP98: Changed Border Retained After Closing, Not Saving Page

ID: Q189381

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows

SYMPTOMS

When you close a page in FrontPage Editor and don't save the page, changes that you made to a shared border are still present when you open the file.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because FrontPage caches changes to the shared border files in memory. This cache is not cleared even when you close all pages in FrontPage Editor. FrontPage caches these changes to improve the performance of FrontPage.

RESOLUTION

To work around this problem you can reload the shared border from the hard disk rather than the shared border file cached in memory. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Make the shared border that you changed the active border by clicking

   in it.

2. On the View menu, click Refresh.

3. If you receive a message asking you if you want to save changes to the

   shared border, click No.

STATUS

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