This tip is for FrontPage 2002. I don't know if it works with the other versions, since 2002 is my first time using FP.

Actually, I learned this trick by accident. I don't know how many FP users already know this, but I thought it would be cool to share it anyway.

When I want to select a cell I usually put my cursor in the cell I want to select and then go Table>Select>Cell on the File Menu.

I got tired of doing this and then one day I had my cursor in a cell and held down the Alt key and left clicked the mouse. This highlighted the cell and all I had to do was right-click and choose Cell Properties from the fly out menu.

This has saved me a lot of time, running up to the File menu and selecting the cell that way.

I hope this tip helps someone, for I didn't even know about it until the day I accidentally did it.

Thanks C9Mouse, that's a really good tip. FrontPage does have a few usability issues but that certainly solves one of them.

Any more tips anyone?

Drop FP and use a decent program like DreamweaverMX?

Sorry guys, I just couldn't resist that... :D
