technicalities...ok I'll grant you that my response was not verbose enough.

| Rob,
|
| Hey man, you didn't say anything about editing it in your original post.
All
| you said was that "heck you can't even open a Pub web with Pub ", and I
was
| just trying to clarify things, because you can indeed open a *.htm or
*.html
| file with Publisher. And yes, since you brought it up, you can even edit
the
| code directly, but I wouldn't advise it. I've done it, but it is a pain,
and
| besides if I wanted to mess with hand coding I wouldn't be using Publisher
| ;-) Furthermore, the edit would not be saved to the Pub file, which is
| where you should be making the changes you want.
|
| What I was trying to do was to explain when one *would* want to open a
| *.html file...not to edit the file, but to reconstruct the Pub file from
the
| html files. I specifically said that one should not try to edit the files
| this way. No way was I suggesting someone should try to edit a Pub html or
| FP html. Sorry if it sounded otherwise.
|
| Read the last section of this article by David Bartosik. It is his method
of
| reconstructing a Pub file from html files, that I was thinking about when
I
| posted.
|
| Common Sense Computing 101 aka "Why in the world would you lose your
| publisher file?" :

|
| As per the republish, over and over...that is sort of right, but it
implies
| that you have to republish the whole site over and over again. If you use
| the incremental uploading feature in Publisher, then only the changes are
| published...not the whole site. For example if you make only textual
changes
| on a page, and use the incremental upload, then only the *.htm file is
| uploaded, not any of the graphics or the other pages of the site. None of
| the weight...just 10 or 20 kb, so it is quick.
|
| Once again, I was just trying to flesh out your answer at bit.
|
| Gotta keep you educated about Pub, you know <g>?
