Publisher 2002 web publishing wizard

J

Janet Leih

I have Publisher 2002 on the HP Pavilion 555E as a part
of Office XP. All of my web sites have been created with
Publisher, I've been working with it for almost ten
years. But on this version, when I first load Publisher,
and work on a web site, under the file option I can find
the "web properties" option and can go in and change my
keywords as well as add links to the navigation bar.
After I have used it once or twice, the web properties
option vanishes and I can't find it anyplace. I have
reloaded Publisher 2002 from the disks that came with the
computer something like 3 - 5 times, and every time, the
same thing happens. I finally downloaded all of the
updates from Microsoft, but none of them fixes the
problem. I have had the computer for over two months,
and HP doesn't have a clue as to what is wrong. I am
going nuts, and am almost ready to downgrade to
Publisher98. I hope that you can tell me how to fix this
problem.

I think you are unknowingly?/unwittingly? using both Publisher 2000 and
Publisher 2002.

Publisher 2000 has the "web properties" option under the File menu which you
refer to.

Publisher 2002 which you refer to, does NOT have the "web properties" option
under the File menu, but rather these functions are under Tools, Options,
Web Options.

You referred to the publishing wizard in your subject line but your topic
addresses web page options. If you failed to address all your issues here
please repost.

I can find that OK, it has the keywords included and the
links to other pages which are on the Navigation bars,
but I can't find anything about the names for the pages,
they used to be included in the web properties under the
file menu. Sometimes I have to change the default page
names. I suppose that is someplace else, too. There was
nothing about any of this under the help menu, so I
didn't know where to look.

Incidentally, thanks, I've been all over the Microsoft
web site trying to find this out, and I feel like a huge
weight is off my shoulders. You have no idea how
shattering it is when things like that aren't available.
I still don't know why the web properties were there when
I uninstalled and reinstalled the program, that was what
was confusing me.

you should find everything you need and probably stuff you don't yet know
you need all at http://www.davidbartosik.com/pub2002.htm

Why this step backward, and is this fixed in Pub 2003?

Why this step backward,

that's a very complicated answer.

and is this fixed in Pub 2003?

as of Pub 11 B2 it was not.
as of Pub 11 B2TR it was (summit comes in handy ;-)
