I still make my websites in word 79 and am looking for a new (preferable
wysiwyg) webeditor.
On this computer I recently installed office 2007 profesional.
Does any one know if there is still a webeditor lurking insite word 2007 and
how do I activate or start it????

Word 79?!? Good trick considering that the PC wasn't around until 1981 and
Windows didn't come out until 1985. What's more, you're using it to build
websites? Bloody amazing!!! ;-D

Seriously, I can't imagine using a word processor to build websites when
there are so many better tools out there. Even FrontPage (the latest version
of which is 2003) would be an improvement. However, you can still create
webpages using Word 2007. Just save the pages in HTML format. It might not be
perfect or even as good as a _real_ web editor, but it's still got to be
better than "Word 79"...

I suspect you mean Word 97, which is the earliest version which supported
saving as HTML.

If I recall, the HTML produced by Word 97 is extremely crude, can't even
produce tables.

All versions of Word since 97 can save as HTML. Press F12, select "Web page"
or "Web page, filtered" from the "Save as type" dropdown at the bottom of
the dialog, and select your filename.

The difference between "Web page" and "Web page, filtered" is that "Web
page" keeps all the Word-specific information which will make the document
look the same again when you re-open it in Word. "Web page, filtered" strips
out all the Word-specific information and so radically reduces the size of
the file for faster loading in a browser.
