The following are answers to common questions in the Microsoft FrontPage Client Newsgroup:

To view Word or Excel documents, use a floating frame; for example:

<IFRAME WIDTH="75%" HEIGHT="55%" NAME="fframe" SRC="hlsimple.doc">
     <FRAME WIDTH="75%" HEIGHT="55%" NAME="fframe" SRC="hlsimple.doc">
     <EMBED SRC="hlsimple.doc" width=200 height=100>
</IFRAME>

To view the embedded document or spreadsheet, the user must have the appropriate application installed. To open hlsimple.doc in the example above, they will need Microsoft Word or Word Viewer, so it may be appropriate to provide a link to http://www.microsoft.com to download a viewer. Viewers are available for Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft PowerPoint®. You can also convert the document, spreadsheet, or presentation to HTML using appropriate Internet Assistant add-ons. The resulting HTML files may require further enhancements (for example, you may need to use style sheets to retain the original appearance). These HTML files can also be displayed in floating frames as shown above.
