Author Website transfer

I have created a website from a template that I've bought
at PixelMill. I started workink on it on my PC at home
with Frontpage 2002 and WIN 98SE. Everything is saved on
my C drive. I don't know how to transfer this website
that is on my C drive at home onto my PC at work that has
Frontpage 2002 and runs on XP. I've tried saving the
website onto a CD and copying it on my PC at work but I
cannot open the files (ex.:Index).

I get the meesage that I don't have enough server
permission and I need servers extension. Well I just want
to transfer it from one hard drive to another so that I
can work on it at my work.

Let me know please the easiest way!

What may actually be happening is when you move the files from your CD they
are getting flagged as "read-only", since CD files are read-only by default.
Once you move them you can right-click the properties of the files or folder
that contains them, select the properties, and uncheck the read-only
checkbox. You may have to create a new web first, then use the File | Import
function to bring the old web files into the new empty web.

Hope this helps,

First things first....do you have the frontpage program installed on both machines........if you do use the import wesite wizard in the program with the CD installed that has a copy of the site you want to transfer.the wiz will ask what site you want to t
ransfer and navigate throu your drive directory to the contents of your CD.choose it and it will create a new site in frontpage with all the full editing ammenities.....Hope this helps your delemna. J
