How can I automatically capture text files in FrontPage 2002?

I create multiple text files daily that I cut and paste into existing
FrontPage 2002 web pages, one by one, which is boring, tedious, and
time-consuming. There must be a way to upload only the raw text files to the
server, where html code in the existing web pages could pull in the text
files automatically, before uploading the affected files. The text files are
formatted in basic courier new 9pt font. Any help would be GREATLY
appreciated.

One way would be to use an iframe and set the source to your
file name. I tried this using a text file just fine

are you on a server that can run .asp files?

Exactly what is an iframe and how would I go about using one in this
situation? Thanks!

using asp you can use the server.execute to write the content of the text
file into the page dynamically.

I have a site that I did for a lady that makes use of this function.
if you'll contact me through my site below, I'll dig it up and send it to
you.
