Amazon.com Review
If your home or office hasn't been touched by the Internet, it will be when you upgrade to Office 2000. For experienced Webmasters, and those eager to build their first Web homage to a favorite movie or rock star, Microsoft Press's Running Microsoft FrontPage 2000 serves as a comprehensive reference that will help you post your pages and your admiration for everyone to see.
This book explores Microsoft's powerful Web development tool in its entirety, answering nearly any question you may have about how to publish the sharpest pages ever. Do you want to put up a simple page? Build an intranet? Incorporate databases or Java? You'll find detailed instructions, illustrations, and examples on these and hundreds of other topics.
In addition, you will get a CD-ROM jammed with sample files, font utilities, and other tools to make your site stand out from the rest. Be warned, however: it's not organized as a simple instruction tool, and the novice should consider a tutorial in addition to this reference; Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Step by Step is a good place to start. But fast learners and old hands should pick up everything they need from Running Microsoft FrontPage 2000. --Rob Lightner

RUNNING is one of the best FP-2000 books available.,
By Kaz Latven, Ph.D. (San Diego, Ca) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Running Microsoft FrontPage 2000 (Paperback)
I read Buyens'earlier FP-98 cover-to-cover to learn FP-98, and then got the FP-2000 version at that product's introduction. The books are quite similar with 2000 containing all the new features of the FP-2000 product, plus some additional development in a few areas. I have been very happy with both books. I used the first to learn FrontPage, and now the second as a good reference. Few texts can be used for such cross purposes like this one can. The material has a good layout and pleasing presentation, although it is not a "slick-page" book. It is neither a "for Dummies" book, as it is written in an intelligent and engaging style. It has a well-developed Table of Contents and extensive index for finding what you want. "Tables" are arguably the most important aspect of a Web page and the chapter on tables is particularly good. When I was finished, I really understood tables and now I use FP to just create the outline of complex multi-table tables, but then use HTML mode to go in and put them together. RUNNING showed me how to do that, by several examples in the book. The CD is good in that a lot of what was covered in the book is available without re-typing it in. I thought that more could have been made of this resource. Small complaint, and Buyens' book is still the best of the lot.

Not what I had anticipated,
By A Customer
This review is from: Running Microsoft FrontPage 2000 (Paperback)
This book didn't meet my expectations. As another reader mentioned, the author spent a great deal of time talking about colors and style-sheets. Although they are important topics, I bought the book to learn about frontpage 2000. I fumbled around in FrontPage for about 2 weeks prior to purchasing this book. This book didn't tell me anything more than what I had already learned from using the program. So my recommendation is if you are new to frontpage and web design, this might be a good book for you. If you want to take frontpage to the next level , buy "FrontPage 2000 Developer's Guide".

Beginner,
This review is from: Running Microsoft FrontPage 2000 (Paperback)
I purchased this book in the hope of learning how to use FrontPage 2000 - this was a mistake. Running Microsoft FrontPage 2000 is a reference book and not a learning tool. It is concise and comprehensive but not a starting point for beginners. When you understand FrontPage 2000 this book is an excellent reference vehicle for further exploration.
