In Microsoft Excel 97, if you click "Add the result to your FrontPage Web"
in step 4 of the Web Form Wizard or you click "Add the result to my
FrontPage Web" in step 4 of the Internet Assistant Wizard, and you are
using Microsoft FrontPage 98; the following error message may appear:
FrontPage cannot be found on your machine. Please make sure that it is
installed and working properly.
This problem occurs because the Web Form Wizard and the Internet Assistant
Wizard do not work with Microsoft FrontPage 98.
To resolve this problem, obtain an updated version of the Internet
Assistant Wizard for Microsoft Excel 97. The updated Internet Assistant
Wizard (Html.xla) allows you to export a worksheet to a Microsoft FrontPage
98 Web.
NOTE: This only corrects the problem when using the Internet Assistant
Wizard (Save As HTML on the File menu). There is no workaround for the
problem with the Web Form Wizard.
NOTE: This feature has been updated since Microsoft Excel 97 for Windows,
Service Release 1 (SR-1) has been released. If Microsoft Excel 97 for
Windows SR-1 is installed, you must download and install Html.xla to use
it with Microsoft FrontPage 98.
To obtain the updated Internet Assistant Wizard for Microsoft Excel 97, use
your Web browser to go to the following Web address:
To work around this problem, click "Save the result as a Microsoft Excel
file" in step 4 of the wizards, and then import the Hypertext Markup
Language (HTML) page into your FrontPage Web from Microsoft FrontPage. To
import the saved HTML file from Microsoft Excel 97 into your Microsoft
FrontPage 98 Web, follow these steps:
- Start Microsoft FrontPage.
- If the Web in which you want to save the HTML file is not already open,
click Open FrontPage Web on the File menu, select your Web, and click
OK.
- Click Import on the File menu.
- Click Add File. Locate the HTML file and click Open. Then click
OK.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Excel 97 for
Windows.
