I use Frontpage all the time to build tables, forms, etc.  Frontpage 2000
has a feature to "preserve" existing html.  I don't open the actual CF
template in Frontpage, but I have copied CF code into the Frontpage HTML
editor, edited the code, and pasted back in Studio without a problem.  I
would advise against installing the Frontpage Extensions, especially if you
don't have need for them.
