Thanks Thomas, I will try that. Obviously, I am new to this. Do I need to know a specific ftp address and root directory to do this? I'm still not exactly sure what these are and how to acess them if needed. I would ask Homestead, but have found that their support is usually slow (4 or five days) and useless. I bought FP '03 hoping that I could easily copy and convert my site and then transfer web hosts. Do you know why I can't copy my jpeg image files on my hard drive to FP? FP wiil not recognize the files yet they are Adobe Photoshop optimized jpegs. Any help is appreciated, thanks, Chris Thomas A. Rowe" wrote:
