SYMPTOMS
========

When you close FrontPage Editor while you have unsaved pages open, a dialog box
in a language other than English may appear.

CAUSE
=====

This behavior occurs if Mfc40loc.dll is installed on your computer.

RESOLUTION
==========

Rename the Mfc40loc.dll file. To rename this file, follow these steps.

NOTE: Because there are several versions of Windows, the following steps may be
different on your computer. If they are, please consult your product
documentation to complete these steps.

1. Close FrontPage Explorer and FrontPage Editor.

2. On the Windows Start menu, point to Find, and then click Files Or Folders.

3. In the Named box, type "Mfc40loc.dll" (without the quotation marks). In the
  Look in box, select the hard disk where you installed Windows. Click Find
  Now.

4. Select the Mfc40loc.dll file in the Results pane.

5. On the File menu, click Rename.

6. Rename the file to Mfc40loc.old and press ENTER.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Mfc40.dll is the Microsoft Foundation Class library and is required for
FrontPage to run. Mfc40loc.dll provides localized (foreign language) text
strings for several dialog boxes. If this file is present, FrontPage uses the
localized text strings within this file.
