from what screen do you right click? I tried it after I opened the project
and properties does not come up.

the more obvious reason for why your files were read only. Any time you
write to CD, the files will become read only. If you copy them back to your
hard drive, right click, properties, you can change that read only setting.
Thanks for posting back.

ok - I am up and running - thank you for your help - I'm sure I'll be back
as
I still don't know what I'm doing. But, I did figure out about the "read
only" I origianlly started building my site on my laptop and then moved
to
my other computer - so I went back in and saved it under an another name
because it was a read only file. After I saved it under a new name it
allowed me to upload the files. Thanks for all the links - I have read
all
of them and I know that I will be using them greatly. Thanks Again

When you Publish to the Web from Publisher, it produces an index.htm file
and a index_files folder unless you change the default settings. The
index.htm file is your home page, and your other pages and graphics are
contained in the index_files folder. As Mike suggested, Publish to the
Web,
and direct your html output to a folder on your hard drive where you can
find it. Then open those files and look at them. Your goal is to upload
both
the index.htm file and the index_files folder to the root directory for
your
website on GoDaddy.
From what you have written here it appears that you did not upload the
Publisher HTML files to the correct place on GoDaddy's servers. As the
tech
said, he found your files, but not in the root directory. Go back and
read
the directions given to you from GoDaddy as to where EXACTLY to upload
your
files. Change your FTP or HTTP address...the path to the root
directory...the root folder...the root file...it can be called a number
of
things. You didn't say anything about which uploading protocol you are
using, but since you are not using a form, then try the FTP directions.
Chances are you have broken the FPSE, so skip HTTP for now and
concentrate
on FTP. And as I said before, eventually you need to log on to your
webhost
and find the files that you uploaded before and delete them, as the tech
said they are not in the root dirctory and are just taking up space. Once
again, read the directions on how to log on to your webhost, and access
your
control panel. GoDaddy has very good instructions for how to upload your
site, and even gives you a link to other FTP programs such as Filezilla.
You
just need to read the directions until you understand them:
http://help.godaddy.com/article.php?article_id=96&&&;
and this one:
https://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/pdf/Hosting.pdf
and several other good articles. And here is another article about
Publisher:

and go back and read the troubleshooting article by David Bartosik.

I talked with godaddy and what they said is that all my files are there,
but
there is no index file (for the home page) - also he said that all
of
my
photos, etc.. are sitting in a folder and not to the root - he also
said
he
didn't know how to use publisher so he didn't know how to tell me to
create a
home page (index) page. And when I look in my publisher program I now
have 3
files with .pub, .htm and .mht. Can you tell me how to create a home
page
index file. Thanks

Oh yeah - 2003 version - www.ncwholesalebeads.com - by ftp (I tried it
the
other way too.) I looked for some of the links that you had given
before
but
could not find them. My hosting is through godaddy - if that is
helpful.
I
can't remember what else you need, but I would really appreciate your
help.

I have tried to publish my website created in Publisher 2003 and
have
gone
back and read all the how to's etc... but surly I'm missing
something -
it
keeps telling me that it cannot save a "read only file" what did I
do
wrong
or more importantly how can I fix it. Thanks - I did try to do this
on
my
own but I'm hopeless.
