Is it possible to rename a web that has subwebs?
If so, when renaming, will it automatically adjust the
hyperlinks?

I have tried to rename using the Tools/Web
Settings/General Tab, but it won't let me rename because
it has subwebs. Is there any way around this?

Thanks
 
Hi,

Two things I have done.

Create a copy of your site before you begin.

Open Frontpage and create the new named empty web.

Import or publish the original site into the new folder.
 
Laura,

Changing the name of a web folder will not impact the links within the
subweb, if they are maintained by FP, because they are relative to the
subweb folder.

However with that said FP will not allow you to change the name of a subweb.
Your only options is to create a new folder at the same level, then convert
that folder to a web and publish the sub web to the newly created subweb,
then delete the original subweb.
