Discussion Boards

[Anna]

Ok...this is my third time posting a question today and
the others haven't shown up so hopefully this works...

In the website I am making, I would like to add a
discussion board that limits access to certain people in
our company. I have been looking into SharePoint Team Web
Site features, but I am unclear as to whether a SharePoint
Discussion board can be used in my web site, if the entire
site is not SharePoint. Is there any way I can do this or
will I be better off just using a Frontpage discussion
web? I would appreciate any suggestions, thanks!

To use any SharePoint features, the whole FrontPage Web
needs to be SharePoint. However, if the SharePoint version
of the FP2002 Server Extensions are installed, then any
subweb can be a SharePoint site or not.
