MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / August 2004Home page return
I have my web page uploaded from 2002. I have two problems. #1. I have 6 pages and it works OK until I try and return to the home page with the link on the other pages. I get an error message. The home page site is http://www.theofficenet.com/~earl. The link shows http://www.theofficenet.com/~earl/earl insurance agency.htm. How do I fix this? #2. I put in the keywords for the search engines but when I do a search I can't find my page. Any suggestions? Thank you. 1- looks like you probably saved it when you published as "earl insurance agency.htm" which would be incorrect, you need to save it as "index.htm". Failure to name it correctly is covered on the 2002 issues page at http://www.davidbartosik.com/pub2002/pub2002_issues.htm 2- the fact that it can take weeks or months to get cataloged in the search sites aside, you may have failed to load the Service Packs for Publisher. There have been 3 now. Reference www.davidbartosik.com and/or http://www.publishermvps.com for details on SP's. The keywords actually did not work until after SP2 as documented on the 2002 issues page at http://www.davidbartosik.com/pub2002/pub2002_issues.htm  SignatureDavid Bartosik - MS MVP for Publisher help: www.davidbartosik.com enter to win Pub 2003: www.davidbartosik.com/giveaway.aspx > I have my web page uploaded from 2002.

Thank you. Bizarre! How can M$ sell crap like this? Every time my outrage about Publisher begins to subside, one of you MVPs drops a bombshell like this. Geez. I bet the class action lawyers will be interested to find out it took two service packs to address a basic features issue like this.

The simple answer is that I am, tired of your crap. M$ made a horrible mistake giving your smart-assed self MVP status. You are wasting your breath defending bad software. No customer wants to hear that buggy code is OK because everybody does it. Some degree of accountability is coming; would you argue that is a mistake? And I am not talking about tax payer dollars; I am talking about a framework that will allow appropriate civil action for unconscionable acts on the part of software sellers. Many years ago congress passed a series of laws that circumscribe the limiting language a company can put in warranties, and that has made warranties meaningful. It takes a long time for law to catch up with technology, but software companies are asking for it when they abuse customers with half-baked buggy programs. >|| Brian, you are one annoying self-important know nothing guy. > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > >Yup ;-).

Do you know what sticks and stones are? :-P You would need to review some previous threads to understand my problem with this guy. It is essentially his view that M$ can do no harm. Publisher, especially 2002 and 2003 are the proof that is nonsense. His principle defense is that all software providers are as bad or worse than M$. I was not disrespectful to him first, believe me. He has argued I am a fool for believing what M$ says Publisher will do, and not being smart enuff to see through there lies about its capabilities as a website building tool. M$ has far better ambassadors of good will in here like David B., and JoAnn P. If M$ had any sense at all they would drop this argumentative confrontational fool like a hot potato. >Reviewing the thread, you are the cause of the yellow flag. 15 yard >penalty! Hi analog@logwell.com (analog@logwell.com), in the newsgroups you posted: ||M$ has far || better ambassadors of good will in here like David B., and JoAnn P. || If M$ had any sense at all they would drop this argumentative || confrontational fool like a hot potato. That is because they don't debate with you. You seem to have some decent knowledge of Publisher. Use it here in the newsgroups wisely, and you will help many. In the mean time, grow up a little. If you don't like someone arguing your points, don't make your points here. I have been here long before you joined this newsgroup and will be here long after you leave. Why don't you try to make the short time you are here peaceful and mature. P.S. I am not *defending* MS. I am *supporting* all software companies. SignatureBrian Kvalheim Microsoft Publisher MVP http://www.publishermvps.com ~pay it forward~ This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. Lad, what you do is not debate; and that is why you have not earned my respect. In fact other MVPs in here often disagree with my largely negative attitude about Publisher, but the debate has always been civil compared to the interchange with you. Call it defense or support, but why do it? If you were a major stockholder, I could understand it a bit better. And don't be quite so sure you will be here after I am gone. I am highly motivated to track what goes on in this forum for a few reasons, and as for your future, who knows? >Hi analog@logwell.com (analog@logwell.com), >in the newsgroups [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > >P.S.

It's impossible to satisfy EVERY consumer with a feature set. Software is written by humans, and humans are not perfect. Test environments are not perfect. And if someone doesn't like the new features in a released version, Microsoft offers a 100% money back guarantee. And you can take THAT to the bank. || If you were a major stockholder, I could understand it a bit better. I am a stockholder.

I have seem many of your type come and go in the 7 years I have been in these newsgroups. It will be sad to see you leave as you have the experience with Publisher that we need in these newsgroups to help others, and it is appreciated. Just be prepared that I *will* debate with you in these public forums if I don't agree with your comments. While I don't *own* or *moderate* these newsgroups, I WILL try to keep the noise down. There is no room for your *publisher* politics. SignatureBrian Kvalheim Microsoft Publisher MVP http://www.publishermvps.com ~pay it forward~ This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. I stand by my assertion that you are nothing more than an argumentative jerk, something you prove every time you open your mouth. All of a sudden I have valuable experience with Publisher? What I have is a huge amount of wasted time fighting with M$ over Publisher's bugs with multiple episodes sent to escalation teams where eventually they threw their hands up. What I have is a 300 page website stranded in Publisher 2000 because later versions are a disaster. I will concede I know a great deal about how to trick Publisher into doing what I want it to do, but that is a sad state of affairs. Publisher is not suitable for a business website. Publisher does not deal with HTML as a "native language" as claimed on the 2002 retail package. Even with all service packs and patches in place, the latest version of Publisher generates bloated code. Publisher politics? Perhaps, but I will not be happy un till these issue are addressed, and part of that has to include a reasonable way to move into another program that will not take scores of hours of code doctoring. An unreasonable expectation? Give me a break. In any event, these questions, and many more, are eventually headed to court if the lazy lawyers ever get their act together. Syd H.

Sounds a little abusive to me. There are much better ways to deal with such issues than that. Maybe your upbringing explains some of your problems. > My mouth was waterng but I certainly didn't want to swallow. I'm sure you've carried that forward through to your adult life.

Otherwise you would stink as bad as the advice you post here. Have a nice day. Best not try a stunt like that in this day and time. It will almost certainly be viewed as child abuse by the authorities. You are an idiot to even say such a thing in a public forum in this day of political correctness. Besides, I did not even call you an a.shole(which you certainly are), merely an argumentative jerk. You would resort to corporal punishment for that? You are indeed a moron of epic proportions. >|| I stand by my assertion that you are nothing more than an >|| argumentative jerk, something you prove every time you open your >|| mouth. > >Stopped reading here.
