So do I want SharePoint Designer? Will it do what FP does, plus more?
Color my Hot Spots? Or do I want a 4 year old FP 2003?

| You Guys lost me at " In an image/graphic application". Is there
something
| practical that I can do, using only FP 2002, to achieve either of the Hot
| Spot color effects I'd like? Thanks, Paul
|
| BTW, is there an FP 2007 or something else from Microsoft that I should be
| using, instead of my old FP 2002 (that blows up at predictable times under
| Vista, forcing me to keep a XP Pro laptop for these needed functions?)
That
| is easy, like FP 2002, not making me become a programmer in some
| "curly-brace language"?
