Publish web under file menu grayed out

[bobco]

How do I remedy this?

 

[Ronx]

Open the website on your PC - use File->Open Web and browse to the
folder that contains your web site.
Publish will only publish open web sites.

Thanks. The Frontpage help should contain that.

Common sense should dictate that if a web wasn't open, commands wouldn't be
available.

Well, Tom, maybe some people aren't as brilliant as you. Last time I checked,
this isn't an opinions forum.

"How do you use FrontPage to help you manage your site? Here are examples of
what you can do:

Add, rename, delete, or move around files (without doing it in Microsoft
Windows Explorer)
Fix problems by using special reports, like the broken hyperlinks report
Publish a Web site
**The important thing to remember is that these management features are not
available when opening and working on single HTML files. They are available
only when you open and work on a FrontPage Web site.**

What is a FrontPage Web site?
Unlike other Web sites, a FrontPage Web site contains FrontPage-specific
information. Like other Web sites, it also contains Web pages, graphics,
documents, and multimedia - almost any kind of file you want...."

....blah blah blah.

Serious? How do you enable the File-Print menu option in Word when there isn't a
document open? How about Excel when you haven't loaded a spreadsheet? I guess I'll
spare you my opinion. <rolling eyes>

Logic evades him, Karl ;-)
