Frontpage 2003 network link

[Scott Tabor]

Question: for the life of me I can't remember how to create a network link to
my website so I can open it directly in Frontpage. Meaning... If I want to
edit my webpage in frontpage 2003 directly instead of using my local copy of
the website. How do I create a link on my computer and put it on my desktop?
I, know this is probably an easy thing for you "brainies" but I can't
remember how to do it. Please assist.

There are two ways:
Open FrontPage and use File->Recent Sites
This option will keep the last four websites opened.
Opening the website in FrontPage using File->Open Site will automatically create a link in My Networks and add the site to Recent sites.

Or to add a desktop shortcut, see

(In the second example, change http://192.168.1.208 to
http://example.com where example.com is your website's domain.

Note that is is not generally the best practice to edit your remote website directly - any mistakes are live.
