I'm trying to build a web page that has several hundred pages in it.  It
would be helpful for me to have a list of things that might be common to web
page building that Microsoft Publisher CANT DO.  Like for example I'm working
now on pages up in the 200 and 300 range and I can hold down ctl and then
click to get quickly to a page but there doesn't seem to be any way to get
back as quickly. I have to us the little arrow down below each time to get
back to the page where all the links are beginning.  In my application I'm
posting my music and song lyrics so on one page I have a list of like 150
songs and they are all linked to a page where you can find that lyric.  Once
I get there while working in the application prior to it functioning as a web
page, I can't get back to the Music page, or the poetry page in the same way
I can jump to the new page where I"m posting things with the ctrl and click
making the link function as a web page.  Why don't you make something just as
simple like crtl and shift and click to return to the page you were just on.  
Why is there no simple back up button on publisher so I can go back and forth
between pages while i'm working????????

Publisher is a DTP with limited web building capability, that is intended
for small, basic, static sites. Unfortunately you have run up against one of
the limitations, and I don't know that there is a good answer for you. I
would suggest that if you keep finding other things that you can't do with
Publisher to build larger, more sophisticated sites, that you consider
switching to FrontPage or a some other more suitable product.

With that said, if you want to stay with Publisher, I would suggest that you
break up your site, using multiple Pub files. It will address your issue,
and be easier to manage. I would suggest that you read David Bartosik's
article: Building a Web Site with Multiple Publisher 2002 Files @:
