(FP2000) I found the solution in an earlier thread, but being a complete
novice, I need some more detail. Following is an earlier reply (see below
for my questions):


"The formats for the Nav bars for FP 2003 are stored in the folder
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office11\1033\botstyle
In the file NAVBARS.INI
Make a copy of the file (for backup)
Add your own style using one of the existing styles as a template

Say as

[NoBars]
Name=NoBars
Description=An HTML style where each link is separated by a space.
Button="<A HREF="#URL#" TARGET="#TARGET#" STYLE="{text-decoration:
none;}">#LABEL#</A>"
Selected="#LABEL#"
H-Separator=" "
V-Separator="<br>"
Preview="nobars.gif"

Note: You will need to create your own nobars.gif file for the above preview
as: nobars.gif
(just edit a copy of the bars.gif in that directory to remove the line)"

I edited the navbars.ini file as instructed, adding a "No Brackets" style.
I then opened up the brackets.gif file in MS PhotoDraw to edit out the
brackets, but it treated this as a picture and I could not edit it. My
question, how do I edit this file and second, once edited, how do I tell
FrontPage I want to use the new "No Brackets" version"?
 
When you use the nav bar tool select your new NoBars style

Use any image editor (not just an image viewer)
