can't remove names of old webs in FP2000

[Jeffrey Hop]

Hi, I am using FrontPage 2000.


Over the years, several of my websites have
been moved from one server to another. When
I click publish and the Publish Web box opens,
the drop-down menu for web site address contains
a large list of old, useless web sites.

I would like to purge those old useless addresses.
Clicking on them and deleting does not work
as it does on IE6 auto form. How do I remove them?

Elsewhere I received useful advice (outlined below)
from Stefan Rusynko, but this did not remove the
list held by the "Publish Web box drop-down menu"

Here's what I have done to try to remedy this:

* Found and deleted all *.web files

* Edited the registry editor (backed-up first)
by finding and deleting any references to
old webs mentioned in:

1. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\
FrontPage\Explorer\FrontPage Explorer\
Recent File List

2. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\
FrontPage\Explorer\FrontPage Explorer\
Recent Publish List

3. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\
FrontPage\Explorer\FrontPage Explorer\
Recent Web List

4. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\
FrontPage\Explorer\FrontPage Explorer\
Recently Created Servers

5. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\
FrontPage\Webs\Opened


Yet, still no solution to original problem. Any ideas?

Thanks, Jeff

You would have to search the Windows Registry to clear items from this list.
