Microsoft Frontpage 97

Teach yourself Microsoft FrontPage with this book's modular structure. The book is a much-needed resource for getting the most out of the software, which comes with only a tiny amount of documentation, inadequate to cover FrontPage in any detail. The Step by Step series is on its way to hitting the two-million-copies-sold mark, adding nearly one million in sales in the last year alone.
