We've recently replaced all our XP computers with Win 7. For years I've used FrontPage to build and manage our site. Microsoft abandoned FrontPage years ago. I have the discs for FrontPage 98 and an upgrade disc to FrontPage 200?. As I understand it, I could run my latest version on Win 7 however because it is an upgrade, I first have to load FP 98 and that is not possible on Win 7. Our site is in need of updating of content. Does any one, know of a way to: A. Run our FrontPage on Win7 or B to migrate the page to another program like Dreamweaver without too much effort?

go ahead and get worpress. ITs very easy to operate. And you can do it yourself. There are million of templates you can modify. Plus its FREE. It will take you about 3 hours to get up online. Most webhosts have scripts to install it for you. its way to easy not to sue it.

I hate win 7 & 8! Hate is a strong word I use rarely, too. I still have a box that has XP on it and any web stuff or corel work must be done on the old box. OK I am a dinosaur. Since I am out of the sign business now, my needs are less than before, except for web work. As long as it ain't broke, don't fix it!

Interesting Preston...I currently have computers with XP, Win 7 and Win 8.1 installed. I like all of them, but each one involved a learning curve just like the progression from DOS to Win and then all of the following incarnations.
I still run CorelDraw X3 and Microsoft Office Suite XP (actually I haven't run into any program/utility that I am used to and like that won't run) on all of my computers with no problems.
The only thing I had to do was break down and buy a new all-in-one printer/scanner/copier when I got the Win 8.1 machine because my "old faithful" Canon printer and flatbed scanner wouldn't work with Win 8.1 (actually the scanner wouldn't work with Win 7 either, so it was time to upgrade anyway) The new printer/scanner cost $49 and is wireless enabled so all the machines can use it.
Like you, I am no longer in the business and am almost a dinasour (age 70), but I definitely don't object to change any more. In fact, now that I am retired I have lots of time to research, adopt and embrace new technology as it emerges.
I am loving the new solid state drive I just installed last week.
