What's the problem
I am a real novice in web design and found this program so simple to use that I could not believe I had created my first navigation bar with a drop down menu. I have tried lots of different programs, both purchased and downloaded from the net and found them most confusing and jargon ridden.

Menu Maker was a breath of fresh air. You just select a design and type your headings then add the links to the pages on your site. That's all. It seems to know where everything should go and worked perfectly with FrontPage. Perhaps the other reviewer has been trying to be too clever for his own good by moving directories and things.

Really if you are a complete novice this is the program for you. There are hundreds of designs which look really professional (unlike the rest of my site) and the step by step customisation is logical and straight forward. I was so impressed I also bought Webstyle (To my surprise it also contains Menu Maker which was a bit disapointing when you have already forked out for one program) So if you want a little bit more than just menus go straight for Webstyle from the same company.

Frustrating - do it yourself or use a designer!
I am not a graphic designer so I thought this software might help me overcome my major limitation as a builder of web sites. It has lots of reasonably designed menus from which to choose. It even allows you to choose where you want to store the graphics that make up your menu. Do not use this option.
I use Dreamweaver with Xara. Integration with Dreamweaver is poor. OK, so Xara adds a menu option to the insert menu which will launch Xara. However, selecting the menu graphics on your page in Dreamweaver gives no information in the Properties Inspector.
When you save your nice new menu graphics it allows you to secify the folder. Do not do this. Unless you use the folder where your HTML file is located (the default), your web page cannot fine the graphics! Yes, I know. I found this so hard to believe, I tried it four or five times.
