Creating a Page

The first step is to gain some experience with the software

So create your own pages which will be NOT be assessed and are purely for practice with the software

You will be working in Microsoft Front Page. Open the program now.
Under the File menu choose Open Web (this is so you can use a folder especially for this exercise) 
Navigate to your H: Drive
Click on the Create a Folder Icon 
Name it and press OK
Now click on it to open it. It will appear empty but its name will be in the box at the bottom.
Click Open

Create a folder within your personal folder inside the my webs folder
Perhaps you could call it intro

Front page gives you a chance to ensure that all of the images are copied into an image folder within your folder

You will need to create an images folder in your intro folder and save there
