Deleting a File Path that goes Nowhere???

M

Melody

Ok, I'm as new as they come... installed FP2002 and
instead of reading the book I purchased, I had to jump
right in the fray. And a fight it's been ever since. I
accidently created a page and have no idea how to delete
it. I created several WRONG file paths and I don't know
how to delete those either. So, as a matter of principle,
I just thought I would uninstall FP and reinstall and
thought they would go away. NOT. Could someone please
help. I'm on a mission... so aggravated that I can't make
these things go away??? Thanks for your time and
consideration. After I solve this problem I intend to be
more careful. Not a very forgiving program. I WILL read
the book.

Be safe and prosperous!

Where are you "seeing" these file paths? Is it in the recent files listing
in when you click File in FrontPage.
If so they are contained in the registry. However, as you create new files
they will be replaced.

Hi Steve,

Thank you for responding... I managed to delete the
pages, but this is what I am stumpted about??? I
attempted to import a web page and was ahead of the
instructions :(... I clicked on "Web Site Templates" in
the right hand portion of the program... Brings up
window "Web Site Templates"... under "Options"
is "Specify the location of the new web"... drop down
box... it is there that I created bogus file paths and I
can not figure out how to delete these from the drop down
menu. I thought by uninstalling and then reinstalling
FP2002 they would just go away. No such luck. I'm just so
frustrated that I cannot remove these file paths. Maybe
you could help? I've backspaced... used the "delete
key"... attempted to type over them in the drop down
menu... nothing??? Probably something simple and it has
just eluded me. Boy, I'm off to a good start:(

Be safe and prosperous!

OK,
These really won't hurt anything. They can be removed by editing the system
registry if you're comfortable with doing this.
They will be found at:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\FrontPage\Explorer\FrontPage
Explorer\Recently Created Servers

You can delete everything in the right hand panel *EXCEPT* the value named
Default.

Then close and reopen FrontPage.
