| Hi Thomas - when I right click on the folder (within FrontPage) and go to
| Properties I am not given the option to select / deselect "Allow Files to
be
| Browsed" - that option doesn't even exist! I have boxes which say "Allow
| scripts or programs to be run" (greyed out), "Allow anonymous upload to
this
| directory" (greyed out) and "Allow uploaded files to overwrite existing
| filenames" (also greyed out). Thanks for your help and patience! Nicky
