The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft FrontPage 2002

This article was previously published under Q315929

SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to import files into a selected folder, the files are imported into a different folder than you expect. For example, if you switch from Page view to Folders view, select a folder, and then import the files, the files are imported into the folder that you selected in Page view rather than the folder that you selected in Folders view.

CAUSE

FrontPage reverts back to the folder list that you were viewing when you opened the Web to determine where to import files. The folder list is the left pane in Page view, Folders view, Navigation view, or Hyperlinks view. If you open the Web in Page view, FrontPage reverts back to the folder tree in Page view.

WORKAROUND

To select the location wherer you want to import the file, follow these steps:
  1. On the File menu, click Import.
  2. Click Add File and select the file you want to import.
  3. Click Modify.
  4. Select the destination folder.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
