Importing my web from host

[Bob Maybury]

Recently I successfully transferred (using ftp) my web
site pages and links to a new hosing company. All works
well as far as being able to view the web on my Microsoft
IE6 browser.

But now I want to use FrontPage 2002 to begin maintaining
the web, for example, by adding neww information on some
of the pages.

So I go to FrontPage 2002 and open it. I have from my new
host a user name and password as well as the address for
his server. I don't know how to use these in FrontPage to
import my web so I can edit it in FrontPage's editing
pane. Could anyone help me to know what steps I need to
take.

Many thanks,

Bob Maybury

How did you do the transfer? Did you lose any files in the process? I am
trying to do the same thing, but I keep having trouble.

The import function only imports what is seen by a browser, so shared
borders, include files, navigation structure, themes, asp pages, databases,
etc. are not imported. You would need to be able to publish between
computers.

| Dear Users,
| I am using FP 2000. I uploaded a few files to my website
| through Geocities easy Upload method. Now I want to import
| that folder to some other computer. That folder contains
| an index.htm file too along with other 30 files. Some time
| FP imports all files properly, but at other times it
| doesn't. I tried to import that folder through FP but it
| is importing only index.htm not others. What can be the
| reason? Can anybody help me?
