Re: How to open a doc on my website.

I have used the 'Add a network place' wizard to 'add the
FTP location' but when I try to connect it will not Log
in. The message simply says 'Cannot Log in with User name
and Password'. I have tried every combination that might
work based on the values in my FTP client.

I have asked my web host if this is possible and was told
I can only connect using an FTP client.
I do have an FTP client, no problem there, but of course
I want to open using Word. The support guy at my host
probably does not know Word's capabilities, none the less
I am stuck.
