Also try directly
File Open Web and enter your URL as
http://www.yoursitename.com/
or browse to the site in IE and try File Edit w/ FP
- if you get the same error it is a server authentication setup error
- FP2000 will work w/ the FP 2002 SE

| JDR,
| Thanks for the reply, I will pass it on to our network

| so I have concluded it might be a firewall issue locally
| except I'm not sure of the set up here.
|
| Thanks again.
