Web Publishing

[John DeLuna]

When I go through the steps to publish my web site I notice several older
web sites listed in the drop down box of available web sites to publish to.
How can I delete these older sites from showing up? I deleted the shortcuts
listed in the "My Network Places" folder but that didn't fix the problem.

Deleting a shortcut NEVER deletes the files. Only a pointer to the files.
Youll have to go in and manually delete them.

Thanks for the quick reply. I can't find an option to delete them from the
drop down list. Also, right clicking on the site name produces no options to
delete. Any suggestions?

Try going in thru Windows Explorer and deleting the files.

They are not stored on the disk, but in the Windows Registry

If you are comfortable w/ backing up & editing your registry they are stored in

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\FrontPage\Explorer\FrontPage Explorer\Recent Publish List

Stefan -- That's exactly what I needed. Worked like a charm. I should have
thought about the registry! -- John
