If the web pages are entirely .htm or .html, with
no SSI or server side scripting then:
Open the web in FrontPage as a disc based web,
browse to the folder containing the branch you
wish to view, Click on a page and Preview in
Browser. Or do the same in Windows Explorer and
double click a page.

If there is any server side scripting (.asp,
..aspx, .shtm(l) or .php pages) then you need a
web server and offline viewing is not possible -
Expression Web has a web server built in, but
this is restricted to .htm(l), .aspx and .php
pages.

To COPY the branch, use Windows Explorer to copy
the folder to another location.

The above seems too obvious - is there something
I missed?

It is up to the web designer to build the file
structure of the site, FrontPage is just a tool.
It is easy to create a new folder and move pages
into it. So each branch can have its own folder.

Every one that I know with a site containing more
than 30 pages plus images etc. - different topics
go into different folders; for some web owners
different topics go into different websites.

As an example, the templates supplied with
Expression Web place each page into its own
folder - but this is over the top.
My own personal site (built with FrontPage and
Expression Web) has over 600 folders containing
12800 files.
