SYMPTOMS
When you right-click a picture in Microsoft FrontPage 2002, and then click Edit Picture on the shortcut menu, you may receive the following error message

Microsoft FrontPage

Could not load file:///C:/ / .jpg

where  is the name of the folder that contains the picture and   is the name of the picture file.



CAUSE
This behavior can occur in the following situation:
 * 1) You install Microsoft FrontPage 2000.
 * 2) You install Microsoft Image Composer.
 * 3) You upgrade to Microsoft FrontPage 2002.

This issue occurs because Microsoft Image Composer is listed as the program that is used to open image files (.jpg and .gif), but the path to the executable file points to Microsoft FrontPage 2002 (Frontpg.exe).



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, re-associate the image file types with the Microsoft Image Composer program. To do this, follow these steps:  Start Microsoft FrontPage 2002. On the Tools menu, click Options. Click the Configure Editors tab. In the Type list, click gif, and then click Modify. Click Browse. Browse to the location of the Imgcomp.exe file.

NOTE: In the default installation of Microsoft Image Composer, this file is stored in the following location:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Image Composer\

</li> Click IMGCOMP, click Open, and then click OK.</li> In the Type list, click jpg, and then click Modify.</li> Click Browse.</li> Browse to the location of the Imgcomp.exe file.

NOTE: In the default installation of Microsoft Image Composer, this file is stored in the following location:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Image Composer\

</li> Click IMGCOMP, click Open, and then click OK.</li> In the Options dialog box, click OK.</li> Quit FrontPage 2002.</li></ol>
