Is it possible to remove all personal details from a Frontpage web site I am
building? I know how to do it in MS Word, but MS Frontpage does not have a
similar window thingy to do it. I am using MS Frontpage 2002 from Office 2002
professional.

The first thing to do would be to identify what and where these "personal
details" are, and how they got there. Can you provide us with any clues?

It is also important to remember that comparing FrontPage to MS Word is like
comparing apples to bricks.

Hi Kevin,

Thanks heaps for replying.

I do not know where it is exactly, I am a bit dumb when it comes to
computers, not as dumb as I used to be but. :-)
I only know that a friend sent me the following text with a message that my
personal computer details were in that webpage. I do not mind my real first
name being on the webpage, what I do not like is my real second name
appearing in the bottom bit of the code stuff shown below.
While I know it does not really matter, I am a bit pro privacy. I disagree
with the "Big Brother" stuff, and this is a classic example of Microsoft
sending my details with any webpage I create.

Do not use Word to build your web pages - use FrontPage. FrontPage is
not capable of including this information, unless *you* type it in.
On each page, delete
<o:SmartTagType
namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags"
name="City"/>
<o:SmartTagType
namespaceuri="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags"
name="place"/>

<o:Revision>1</o:Revision>

These lines are not required in a web page.

Also delete
<meta name=ProgId content=Word.Document>
<meta name=Generator content="Microsoft Word 10">
<meta name=Originator content="Microsoft Word 10">

then FrontPage will open the file for editing, rather than pass it
over to Word.

Also in FrontPage,
Tools->Options - Configure Editors
then untick the box "Open web pages in the Office application that
created them"
