Cheer up ol' boy. If you have to lean a new MS product, ie. Expressions,
why not learn Dreamweaver?

I'm a Frontpage fan myself. I am now getting my head around DW. I'm
starting to kinda like it. Although the jump from CS3 to CS4 has been a
bit of a challenge!!!!

Have a good week.

Hi Jason and others...

This old dinosaur still has Front Page as the tool being used at this
point (Dreamweaver too painful!).

The FP replacement program..Expression...is it easy to install for the
techie, and then easy to learn(ie Kentproof!) yes, I do have a sense of
humour and I hate always having to learn new software but hey, its the
job we do so I just get on with it...grrmmph! 

At least in Maths, a derivative by first principles is always the
same(method) and not always changing(maths joke..and yes I know
derivative measures rate of change and warped me enjoys maths stuff as I
dont read novels!)

Hi List

Just wondering if there is anyone who is using MS Sharepoint as a web
design program. Waiting patiently for tech to in stall MS Expression,
have been waiting for this program since November last year!!!!

If there is anyone using sharepoint, I am looking for tasks/tutorials

Any help would be super.

Cheers

The open source versions are great and can be freely downloaded and
shared for installation and use at home by the students. Amongst others
I recognise, here is another we can add to the list of free versions to
try out.

I'll admit to using the rather lame but workable spreadsheet version on
the VITTA website I made years ago (original author credit pending in
this spot)

Hi all,

I have just (and I know I am a little slow on the uptake here) realised
that my school no longer has Microsoft project,,, and if I want it on
the machines for the sac I need to pay $200 per machine. as it is no
longer in the agreement.. it is the program that all the teachers here
have used for Gantt charts for the last 7 years.. so now I do not know
what to recommend or even try myself.. 

so here is my question.. what programs are all of you using for your
Gantt charts for the sacs?  is there a really good one out there that is
cheaper or should I just pay the $200 per machine which I am loathing
to.. and so is the boss....

thanks for your assistance and time with this.

cheers
