We are just starting to get a SharePoint installation going and
management wants to modify the "look and feel" of the installation. I
have Visual Studio .NET installed (but have never use it) and am
expected to use it to modify our SharePoint using it. I was told at a
recent Microsoft demonstration of SharePoint to NOT use Visual Studio
because it has a nasty habit of corruption the files. They recommended
using FrontPage 2003 instead.

Has anyone on the list using Visual Studio have any problems editing
SharPoint files? My thoughts are to ditch Visual Studio in favor of
FrontPage (at least for SharePoint).
