Move a Word doc. to Front page 2000.

[Guest]

I've written some Worddocuments for Internet but I want them transferred to
Front Page 2000.
I've used the command "open with Front Page" and I can't see it's working
properly
When opening the word doc. in FP 2000 all images are gone and replaced by an
empty square with a red cross in the upper right corner.
"Drag and drop" isn't working either.
I really don't want to rewrite it all once again.

Hello,
Using Word to create web pages is a bad idea. (Word was never
intended for this use.)
Placing Word Doc's and/or Word html (regardless of method) into Front Page
is even a worse idea.

Red X's where images are intended are a result of invalid link paths.
There are multiple reasons for this:
1) The defualt for Word Web pages is to attach image in a correpsonding
folder named after the web page. These links may still require editing
before uploading to a website because Word doesn't have any insight into the
required directory structure of your website.
2) In the event that you turned OFF the above in Word Web Options, you still
need to upload these images in a method that is compatible to the folder
paths of your website, NOT the folder paths of your local machine.
3) The third option is that you just failed in uploading the images?
