IMPORTANT: The OLE automation interfaces described in this section apply to FrontPage 97 and FrontPage 98. There are a number of changes since FrontPage 1.1, including new methods, and additional or changed arguments to older methods. Your code should ensure at runtime that you are running against the appropriate version of FrontPage.
There are three main components in FrontPage that can be controlled externally through OLE automation. Each component has a separate OLE identifier in the Windows Registry on a user’s machine. The identifiers correspond to the FrontPage Explorer (FrontPage.Explorer.3.0), the FrontPage Editor (FrontPage.Editor.3.0), and the FrontPage To Do List (FrontPage.ToDoList.3.0). Each component is also accessible with a generic identifier that resolves to the current release of FrontPage; these names are FrontPage.Explorer, FrontPage.Editor, and FrontPage.ToDoList.
