| When you save a Word document, an Excel document, or a PowerPoint
| presentation as a Web page that uses an .htm or html extension, a main
| HTML file is created in addition to a folder that contains supporting
| files for the Web page. The folder uses the same name as the HTML file
| of the Web page, in the form pagename_files. This page/folder
| combination is known as a thicket.
|
| A thicket is also created when VML graphics are used in a web page.
| VML graphics are created when using FP Drawing Objects, text boxes (do
| not confuse with any form fields) and Word Art.
|
| Thickets are always hidden in FrontPage, and always appear to be
| manipulated as a single object.
|
| In Windows Explorer, you can control how thickets are manipulated:
|
| Tools->Folder Options
| On the View Tag, look for "Managing pairs of Web Pages and Folders"
| and pick an option.
