Great book for study for MS exam
My knowledge of FrontPage 98 was small before I picked up this book. I do, however, have a fair bit of computing background. I used this book as my main source to pass the Microsoft MCP exam 70-055. It covered most of the material fairly well. Need to have plenty of hands on exposure as well. The only criticism I have is that the method and extent to which database access was covered needs some work. Good alround book for the beginner to semi advanced user. If you're already well experienced in the use of FrontPage then you'll need something deeper than this book.

Good for beginners, superb reference, bad at deeper issues..
I am a professional web designer, and have been using FP for a while now. When i switched over to FP i bought this book because it was both for beginers and semi advanced users. As a beginner on FP it helped me with just about everything i needed to know about the software. I will never need another book when it comes to the software itself. It also goes a bit deeper in to things like graphics and colours wich is nice but not why i bought the book. One dissapointing part was the database connectivity. It is very messy and didn't really make any sence. I still haven't figured out how to do it, that part should have been left out totally, because the guy has no clue what he is talking about. But over all if you are working with FP or am thinking about it. This is the book for you, if you are already good at FP and am looking for the deeper issues like database management. Buy something else.

A major improvement in MS Press' FP reference books!
Having purchased MS Press' FP 97 book to learn FP in a hurry, I was left a little disappointed. I think the book represented the fact that FP 97 itself needed improvement.I upgraded to FP 98 finally, and borrowed the Running MS FP 98 book form my company's MIS manager and after using it for 3 days, I just told him I was going to keep it. In fact, if it solves my current dilemma I may bronze this book. That is why I visited Amazon, I need to buy another copy for him, b/c he won't be able to expense another one. This book goes into much more detail in every topic I've explored so far. I was impressed by the info on the security of FP including detailed discussions about IIS and NT itself. The tips are great! ts
