My website was created and maintained by a good friend of mine. She was
unfortunately overtaken by cancer, and passed away so quickly, we had no time
to deal with my website. She used FrontPage2000. I have purchased and
installed FrontPage2003. I have my website on local and remote websites, and
have a backup cd made. I'm in the process of trying to learn the program.
Books, help, search, etc. No one in our surrounding area is familiar with FP
to help get me started. I am trying to update just a few things on the site,
so it will not be so outdated. She had a ticker (marquee) on the home page
that I wanted to change, as well as remove her name and contact info
regarding the website. However, I have changed these, and saved them. When
I am in remote website, it shows the saved changes. But, when I try to
publish the page with the changes, the following message appears:

Some items have changed on both the local and remote websites and are in
conflict.
My choices are:
Ignoring will leave these files untouched,
Overwriting will cause these files to be replaced on the destination site.
canceling will cause the publishing process to be stopped and the files in
conflict will be displayed.

Although I am familiar with computers, I am new to website publishing, so, I
always cancel out. What comes up as conflicts are .gif files (pictures and
background)
She used a template with themes. Can anyone tell me, step by step in simple
terms what I need to do, to change just these two things until I can become
more familiar with this program and it's abilities? I have spent many hours
(weeks) reading and searching, and just can't seem to figure it out by myself.
the site is www.away2mefarm.com
Thank you in advance

For your first publish, choose to publish the full site..all pages, not just
changed pages, to get everything in sync. Thereafter, publish changed pages
only.

Sir,
It says on my local, and my remote websites it comes up with the files in
conflict. What do I do to get past this?
When I clicked on Publish this site, that is what came up.

Given the situation, most likely the web on the server is the most current
and what you want to Publish back to your harddrive.

Open FP
File | Open Web/Site
enter the http://yourwebname.com
File | Publish Web/Site
enter the location on your local machine where you store your Web/Sites
make sure you do a full publish (not just changed pages)
I recommend that you publish to a new location on your harddrive instead of
overwritting the one you've alread tried to publish to.

Make whatever changes you want on your local copy then Publish back to the
server...this time you can use Changed Pages.

Do I delete the first file I have stored of my website after I save the new
one?

Only if you are completely sure that you want to. Then Open FP and open the
web you want to delete...in Folder List select the root (topmost listing of
that web) and Delete.
