Can't edit site live in FP

L

Lawanda Hartman

Hi,
I've had this problem before and can't remember what someone here told me to
do about it. I had to replace my hard drive and lost all my info. When I
want to open a page live in FP to edit it like just remove an entry from my
guestbook, I get the message, "C:\Documents and Settings\Lawanda
Hartman\Local Settings\Temporary Internet
Files\Content.IE5\03H7AUN5\guestlog [1].htm - The device is not ready"
Can anyone tell me what to do to fix this? I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Lawanda

You don't have your live site open, you're trying to edit a page that you
opened in your browser.
To edit your site live, Open FrontPage, click File > Open Web... and enter
the http://yourweb.com address.
Then enter your user name and password and your site should open. ( if it's
on a server with FrontPage extensions installed )

Thanks, Steve, that worked. I knew there was a way, but couldn't remember
it. I'm going to put this message in so many different places that I'll be
able to find at least one of them for the next time. Thank you, thank you.
