On my site I have a seperate folder for images etc of different pages.
Sometimes when I have published the folder goes missing and will not apear
in frontpage. When I check it is still where it should be but I cannot access
through Frontpage2003.
It does not do it all thye time and cannot work out what I have done that
has made it refuse to display. When i then go to save the page I cannot
access the particular folder.
eg HTM page = ron and its image folder = ron_files.

These are thicket files, and are normally hidden in FrontPage. It is
unusual to see them .

When you save a Word document, an Excel document, or a PowerPoint
presentation as a Web page that uses an .htm or html extension, a main
HTML file is created in addition to a folder that contains supporting
files for the Web page. The folder uses the same name as the HTML file
of the Web page, in the form pagename_files. This page/folder
combination is known as a thicket.

A thicket is also created when VML graphics are used in a web page.
VML graphics are created when using FP Drawing Objects, text boxes (do
not confuse with any form fields) and Word Art.

Thickets are always hidden in FrontPage, and always appear to be
manipulated as a single object.

In Windows Explorer, you can control how thickets are manipulated:

Tools->Folder Options
On the View Tag, look for "Managing pairs of Web Pages and Folders"
and pick an option.
