You know, I gotta be honest here. I don't understand why I can't just copy
the stupid folder into the root of the WSS web, and add a link to
'menupage.htm' and be done with it. What am I missing? Why do I have to
set up a seperate website? Or, why can't I import these files into the
current web? What the heck is going on that I am missing? I have a stack
of .htm files that are basically nothing more than MSDS sheets, and I want
to share them, but I can't figure out how!

(I apologize in advance...you guys know what it's like when you have "one of
those days..."...this is one of those...and not just this issue either.).
