Sharing Programming Projects

Microsoft FrontPage Visual Basic

Sharing Programming Projects

Microsoft FrontPage doesn't provide the ability to create multiple projects, so sharing a project may be a little confusing at first glance. You can share your Microsoft FrontPage projects using one of the following two methods:

  • As a ComAddIn.
  • By exporting the .bas, .cls, and .frm modules to a directory on your hard drive (or a server location) so that the user can import the modules to their project in FrontPage.

Sharing as a COMAddIn

For a detailed description of how to develop a COM add-in for FrontPage, see the FrontPage Software Developer Kit, which you can view online or download from the Microsoft Developer Network Web site.

Sharing by exporting the project

You can export your modules from the Visual Basic Editor by selecting the module in the Project window and then pointing to Export File on the File menu. In the Export File dialog box, select the directory you want the file to reside in and FrontPage takes care of the rest.

Note  When exporting UserForm files, you must also include the .frx file. This file is used during the import process and does not need to be imported, but does need to be available in the same directory as the other modules.
