powerpoint to web

[Richard Rosell]

I am using PowerPoint 2003.

I am attempting to put a photo slideshow on my website, but am having
difficulty importing the show into FrontPage (2003).
After I save the slideshow as an html file in PowerPoint I go to FrontPage
and do the following:

1) I go to import on the file menu and the wizard menu opens.
2) I click the radio button next to file system
3) Click browse to find the folder.
4) I click the file folder and then click Next in the wizard and get an
error message telling me to verify the location of the file.

I am not sure where I am making my mistake. Thanks for any help you can
offer.

Wild guess. When PPT makes HTML, it creates an HTM file with whatever name you
choose ... let's say you call it Thing. You save as web page and get Thing.htm
but also a subfolder called Thing_files or something very like that.

You probably need to import Thing.htm into Front Page rather than trying to
import the whole folder of Thing_files

Another possibility is that you've saved as a single-file web page (mht rather
than htm). I don't know whether Front Page can work with those (nor do I know
that it *can't*).

Thanks for your help. I think I have solved the problem.
