trouble uploading videos with Frontpage

[chuckb74]

I edit the majority of my website with frontpage 2003 and I am trying to
upload several vidoes to my site using frontpage. I am getting what I think
is an unusual error when I am trying to upload using the File-Import
command. The filetypes are .wmv files and I am using xp pro as my op sys.
The error reads like this " Server error: Video/#07_new.wmv does not refer
to a page or folder in this web. It may be a page or folder in a subweb, or
it could be a badly formed URL." Video is the folder I am trying to
upload the file into.

The file sizes are 2.7 to 3.2 meg files...not all that large. I have
always uploaded these fles with fp 2003 so this is a little bewildering?
Has there been a change ina setting on my website? (not that any iof you
can truly answer that).

Does any one know of a better solution for uploading videos to my own
website?

Thanks

FP may be balking a the file name starting with a #
- try just 07_new.wmv

That does seem to work, thanks so much. At my level of understanding that
could have taken me years to figure out!
Thanks
