help...trying to move a web site from one pc to another

[Guest]

How do I do that? While on the Navigation portion of Front Page, I didnt see any short cuts to doing so and I didn't see a way to add an existing page. The only option I see is to Add a New Page.

You can copy all files to a cd and take it to the other computer but you
would have to delete the hidden folders (_vti_cnf & _vti_pvt) first. Then
you can open it in FP on the new computer and publish it to the server
again.

This answer was given to me on this newsgroup last month and it worked for
me.

I am using Front Page 98. I have done a web site for a sports site for a

couple of years now. I bought a new computer recently and want to move the
site from my old pc to my new computer so I can reformat the older one and
donate it.

I cannot seem to import/export this web site. When I follow any directions

found in a book or online, what I get is all the files but the links are
missing (when I view the web site in Navigation mode, I only see the main
page, none of the child pages are listed nor any of the links --I have about
85 pages on this site) Also, the site is set up with a left.htm page that
is always there so that links are handy to the viewer and there is a
bottom.htm page which always shows through out the entire web site...but
when I try to import/export to a new pc, I lose the left and bottom htm
pages.

I have tried exporting from the older computer and importing to the new

one, I have tried copying all the files to a cd and copying that to the new
computer and I have downloaded the web site from my web site
itself....always the same problem. What am I missing? I would think you
could move a site from computer to computer as hardware is updated.
