| Yes, Rob, I Imported. And Linked or not linked to the home page, the
| importing is very random. I even unchecked the boxes labeled:
|
| "import [] levels down"
| "Limit to [] megaBytes"
|
| So, Basically, I want it all!! All Levels and Any size>
|
| When it starts, it says: Listing all files...
| Then it opens a dialog saying: About.htm exists on the server, but not in
| the current web. Do you want to remove it from the destination?
| Yes Yes to all No No to all Cancel
|
| If I say "No", it goes to the next file.
| If I say "No to all", it ends and does nothing.
|
| I really want it to ask me if I want to add it to the current web (which
is
| empty).
