Microsoft Expression - Anyone used it?

    I was just wondering if anyone has used this yet. I thought I liked it until it started having some quirks. First of all, you must use IE6 for the internal browser(of course). If I saved a file it would edit paths in the code relative to my HD, not for the server which is what I wrote the paths for. It crashes sometimes, not sure why. It is not friendly to some css I have written. It is by far leaps and bounds ahead of Frontpage though.

    So, say if you have or haven't used it and why; what problems you have had; likes, dislikes; comments.

    Haven't used it or even heard of it until now. Your post makes me thinking not using it is the right choice! lol

    Well, it is light years beyond frontpage. I'm assuming it's to directly compete with dreamweaver, and they both have their merits. This is only a beta, so I am hoping that they will fix some problems. It doesn't hurt to try it out, though.

    Not me, but it turns out to be a really nice editor, better then frontpage.

    The program kept crashing and I got tired of losing work so I ditched it for Homesite/CF Studio that we were using previously. Haven't tried any of the more recent ones, though.
