FP2002 no subfolder option when importing

[Erika]

I want to import a web from the internet (published from my home
computer) onto another computer but I never have the subfolder box to
check, so it only imports my index file. I get the screen that asks
me where to import from, then it goes straight to the "limit to"
screen and nowhere do I get the screen with subfolders checkbox.

Any idea how I can make it give me the option to include subfolders?
Or is there some other way to log into my live web and make changes?

The hotmail addy is a throwaway so please don't reply to that address.

Thanks!

Open the site live in FrontPage and then Publish it back to the computer.
if you published it to the server using http://yourweb.com then
you can open it by using File > Open Web.. entering the user name and
password
and then selecting File > Publish and then publishing it to the computer.

Thanks so much Steve, um...how do I open it "live"? Believe it or
not, I've worked with Frontpage since 1998 but have never needed to
make changes in real-time, preferring to make all my corrections at
once and upload them all together.

I go to file --> open web, but my only option seems to be to open a
web from my computer, it doesn't give me an option to enter a web
address, just to browse my computer's files. Am I missing something
obvious? Thanks!

Just type the full URL (as say http://www.yoursiytename.com/ in the dialog box, or select Network Places to see if it is listed
there

ACK! Spoke too soon. I can open it live but have problems editing
the pages. Tried to publish it to my hard drive (so I could work on
it off-line) but get a server-timed-out message (after "listing pages"
for several minutes). Any further suggestions? Thanks!
