I am working with FrontPage 2003, and having a problem with the Find and
Replace function. I want to replace a phrase that appears on all of my
pages, but in the Find and Replace window the "All Pages" option is there but
not available to me. The Help menu tells me to go to View and select
Folders, but Folders is there but not available to me either.

I know, as a last resort, I can fix each page individually, but I would like
to know why this function is not working how it is supposed to.
 
You may want to test by trying this;

Open your web | Edit | Replace | All pages | Find in source code | Replace
all

You will find much more info at:

You must have a web / site open in FP, not just a page.

I just solved my problem by monkeying around with it.

When I open FrontPage, the Getting Started window opens, too. It shows me
choices of files to open.

Under Web Sites I chose "More" and selected my web site folder in which all
my web pages are. A box told me it needed to add some information before it
could open, and I said "Yes." It loaded a minute and all of my pages came up
in a window called "Web Site". Then, the instructions for Find and Replace
worked for all the pages.

I had never opened the site through that link, I only used the Open>Page
link when designing it.
Thanks for your help anyways...
 
Always Open Web/Site first.
