OK Chris - thanks for your help
I think it is an extensions probem, but I dont know enough technically to be
able to sort it out. How are they installed in the first place? Can I
disable IIS5 so that FP will connect with the remote server? My FP is part
of Office premium - I have done repairs and re-installations to no avail.
Anyway, the situation is a bit urgent, and Dreamweaver still works. Will
sort out FP later, and keep you in touch.
