I worked very hard on my Website yesterday and as I was working I was spell
checking the pages and right clicking on the page tab and saving as i went
along. At the end of the day I closed down frontpage and dragged and copied
all the files on another directory, thinking I was backing it all up!! and
then from there,via a wireless network, onto my laptop. When I opened it up
today all the work except for the brand new pages that I worked on the
previous day had gone ?? Does anyone know what I did wrong or where they have
gone? The strange thing is on one of the pages I edited the _include.bot.htm
page which should appear on all pages with some new data yesterday and this
now appears on some of the pages not all ie only the completely new pages i
created yesterday...... jeeesh I am confused.... any help as to where all the
work has gone or if I can get it back, I have searched everywhere.., would be
greatfully received. Many thanks in advance.

If you dragged it you may have moved it instead of copied it (especially if on the same drive)
- try dragging it back to where it was

When you copy a disc based web (say from you desktop to you laptop) always copy the root web folder including all hidden & system
files

PS
Next time to make a backup copy Publish it to another location from w/i FP

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for the reply. I actually just copied all the files and copied them
to the other folder on the same computer and overwrote what was there and
then copied that file accross the network..... not correct? You say to copy
the whole directory? How would I be able to overwrite ie update my website
between my laptop and pc? I suppose I need to "sync" them somehow but cant
figure out how ? Doh!! What do you mean by Publish it to another location
from ?w/i FP ?

Sorry to be a pain and thanks for your help.

Chris.

The best approach is to always use File Menu | Publish Web / Site to move a FP web.

With the site open, File Menu | Publish Site and enter c:\backupwebname

For you laptop, unless you have it network to your PC, the best approach would be to open the
live/remote site from the laptop and then publish the site to a location on the laptop.

By publishing, you will always keep your various site copy in sync with each other.

Hi Thomas,

networked to my pc. I will try the C:\backupwebname as you suggest but it
doesnt seem to be syncing it as described earlier...

You will not be able to sync until you have done a complete publish between the desktop and laptop.
