I recently installed the upgrade to Front Page 2003. When I click on the
"Table Properties" box it is huge and the length of it goes off the bottom of
my screen. It is almost impossible to click the "ok" button. I have my
resolution set at 800x600.

Is there a way in setup to make this box smaller?

I would appreciate any help that anyway can give me.
 
I should have said I have Service Pack 1 for FP installed but still have the
problem.

sorry for the extra post.
 
That dialog in FP needs at least 1024 screen resolution
- in general working w/ FP is best in at least that resolution
As a workaround Try this....

<Alt><SpaceBar> (to get to the menu)
<Down-Arrow> (to get to the move option)
<Enter> (to activate the Move option)
<Right-Arrow> (to move the pane)
<Enter> (to quit move)

I really do wish MS would subdivide these SPs and updates a bit... I
have Office 2000 but FrontPage 2003. In order to upgrade FP2003, I have
to download a 73 MB Service Pack, the majority of which I don't need.
And I'm in rural Ontario (Canada) without a high speed option... :o(

I did order the free CD but if I weren't in Canada or the US that
wouldn't be an option, AFAICT...
 
That won't do it, Stefan, because the options box itself is too long to
fit on one 800 x 600 screen.

As for increasing resolution, that depends on some other factors like
age and vision... it's not just a matter of preference sometimes but
actually being able to read what's on the screen without giving yourself
a headache.
 
That will do it since it will move the option box up so you can see the bottom to apply it

That's correct but at least you can use it in a 2 step process at 800x600,
top first then bottom next

Thank you to everyone for the help. I can't even get your suggestion to work
Stefan. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I think I'll just struggle on as I
have been but wanted to thank all of you for trying.
