Drop down add hyperlink box
05-Aug-08

I have never come across this problem and it's driving me nuts. Whenever I
want to add a hyperlink in FP2003, I used to just hightlight the text, click
the add hyperlink button from the insert drop down and up popped a box with
all the files in that subweb. Clicked on it and off I went.

Now when I do that, FP defaults to my desktop instead of the files on my web
server. I can never get to the subweb files so I have to type in a href code
myself to get the hyperlink to work. What can I do to get FP to read from my
server again?

It doesn't seem to matter. If I open the website and from the file menu
select "edit with FP" or just open FP and then select "open site" I still
have the same problem

The "look in" box is now always showing "desktop" -- All the other locations
in the box are of my local computer and not the files on the web server.

Run regedit and go here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\FrontPage\Editor
Delete the value for: Default Add Image Directory

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\FrontPage\Explorer\FrontPage Explorer\Settings
Delete the values for: DefaultWebName
