Operating system is Windows 98 SE and I currently have
FrontPage 98 with Server Extensions installed on my Pc.
Can I just install FrontPage 2002 and Server Extensions
without jumping through alot of hoops or uninstalling
anything or causing problems with my PC?? Please help I am
a novice (non-techy)!!

Thanks for your help.
 
Im sorry but you totally lost me. Does this mean that I
CAN or CANT just put in the CD and install FP2002 without
doing anything to the existing FP98 that is already on the
PC? Please bare with me I am a novice all I know is insert
CD run setup follow what is says to do and let it do what
it is supposed to do. Anything else is beyond me. But I am
trying and learning. I am determined to not be a novice
forever!
 
I think you can install FP2002, however do need to upgrade the FP98 to
FP2000, at least the have the basic functionality if you want to continue
using the PWS.

However you will not be able to use FP2003 under Windows 98 / SE / ME.

....to clarify, Tom is saying you need to upgrade the FP 98 *server
extensions* to FP2000 extensions.

Thanks to all who responded,

How do I upgrade just the 98 sever extensions to 2000
extensions without purchasing and installing FP 2000 and
then installing the FP 2002 I already have and upgrading
to that also. Are the extension upgrades downloadable free
from somewhere. Also it sounds like I only need to do
this server extension upgrade if I want to continue using
Personal web server. If I dont care if I can continue to
uase PWS and are willing to now us IIS server can I skip
these server extension upgrades and just install my FP2002
over the top of my FP 98. ie. what I mean by that is just
put in the FP2002 CD and do setup without doing anything
else?
