Manually delete all temporary files in your FrontPage cache. Then try these suggestions:

1. Try to make the hyperlink using CTL-K instead of the toolbar icon.
If this works, delete the hyperlink toolbar icon and then make a new one.

2. Do not open any FP webs. Make a new HTML page with no CSS or includes. Write one
sentence of text, and then try to add a hyperlink using the hyperlink tool.
If this works, then there is something complex in your page that FP is choking on.

Nope.
The issue posted by the OP is a known bug when using FrontPage in Vista.

Update your computer with Vista Service Pack 1. That will resolve the issue.

It came with 6.016001 Service Pack 1 Build 6001. According to Windows Update,
this is the latest update and service pack for Windows Vista.
Any more possibilities? Running out of time. PLEASE HELP.
