Microsoft MVP - FrontPage
---------------------------
:I am not sure whether this helps but so far as I am concerned the webname
IS
: a folder, e.g.
: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\My Webs\myweb
:
: In FrontPage, you can use the menu option File|Open Site... to open this
: folder as a website. The panel looks like the normal Windows Explorer
panel
: to open a file except that it has the title Open Site. In this panel, you
: just navigate your folder structure until the folder name (e.g. myweb)
: appears in Look In: . Leave Site name blank and click on Open.
:
: This works for me
