Microsoft FrontPage 2002: Win98/ME/NT4/2K

Editors' rating

Very good

7.0

out of 10

The good: New site usage reports; Photo Gallery makes quick work of thumbnails and layout; has e-commerce add-in for small-business owners.
The bad: Automatic Web content is nothing special; interface improvements are minor; no Mac version.
The bottom line: The Usage Analysis Reports are reason enough to upgrade from version 2000. And if you are a small-business owner, consider buying FrontPage, as it has a special add-in just for you.

Intro of Microsoft FrontPage 2002: Win98/ME/NT4/2K

A new version of FrontPage, Microsoft's popular Web development tool, is due out sometime this summer. Code-named FrontPage 10 during development, version 2002 is actually the tool's fifth iteration. With it, newbie Web builders can create fairly sophisticated sites--with database integration and discussion boards, for example--without any coding. The new app has a few fresh features that make it worthy of an upgrade, as well as an e-commerce add-in that's perfect for small businesses.
