Well, I would hope not, but the way I got them into the nav view was, after
publishing from remote to local, I then opened the nav view, only the home
page was visible so I started draging and droping from the folders on the
left window. [heavvvy siggghhhh]

Is it safe at this point to remove those "subwebs" from the navigation view?

If this info is helpful; the folder list shows c:/docsand
settings/myname/mydoc/mywebsites/mysite and then when that folder is open
the underlying folders start
w/_borders,_fpclass,_overlay,_private,_themes,_cgi-bin, and then there's a
alpha listing of folders for my parent navigation each with a + and when
opened they all show their appropriate child pages. I do notice, however,
that the default.htm which is my home page is in the WysiwygPro folder, and
not in a folder at the top of the page. Could this be one of my problems.
Does the default page need to be in it's own folder?

TIA for this answer and whatever else you can help me with.
