FP2003 after finishing my web page i checked the hyperlinks in design and
they work perfect. i checked them in preview and they work perfect. After
publishing to web server I check them on web and not one of them works. Any
idea why?

How did you publish the site?

The links are pointing to your hard drive.
Does your site have FP extensions? If so
Try Tools>"Recalculate Hyperlinks" and re publish the entire site

Publish via FrontPage only so the links can be converted...

Can you post the URL of the site so we can test this ourselves. "It doesn't
work" is a vague description of the problem.... What error messages do you get?

you links are pointing to files that are on your hard disk i.e. the url is like
file://c:\......rather than http://

I published the site with front page and the site does have FP extensions. I
also noticed the links pointint to my hard drive and thought that was the
problem. but had no idea how to change them (novice)

It appears that you don't have a web folder containing your pages, but have created them all in the
"My Web Sites" folder in My Documents.

You need to create a web folder and then move your pages and images into this folder.
Then:

Open FrontPage, browse to the My Web Sites folder, right click on your new web folder and select
"Convert to web." Then open your web site using File > Open Site... open the pages and remove and
then recreate reinsert all hyperlinks and images.
Save the page. You will have to do this for all pages.
Then publish.

In Windows Explorer create a folder - at the top level - say C:\MySite
Then copy all the files you now have associated w/ the web into that folder and in FP use File Open Site and browse to that folder
(FP will convert that new folder to a web folder / disc based site)
