To create a new FrontPage web!
1 On the FrontPage Explorer’s File menu, point to New and choose FrontPage Web.
2 In the New FrontPage Web dialog box, select the type of FrontPage web you want to create. Choose one of the following:
- One Page Web creates a FrontPage web with a single page (the home page). Use this option to create a FrontPage web from scratch, with no generic or pre-existing content.
- Import an Existing Web will launch the Import Web Wizard, which is used to import an existing web into a new FrontPage web. This wizard will guide you through the process of importing an existing Web site.
- From Wizard or Template lists the Web Wizards and web templates you can choose from to create a new FrontPage web with suggested content. To view a description of the individual FrontPage web wizards and templates, click the wizard or template you want to use. The description will appear just below the list box.
3 Enter a descriptive title for your new FrontPage web in the Choose a Title for Your FrontPage Web field.
4 Click OK.
5 If you are prompted for your administrator name and password, enter them in the Name and Password Required dialog box, and click OK.
Note FrontPage will suggest a location for the new FrontPage web based on the currently selected Web server or folder. To choose a custom location, click Change in the New FrontPage Web dialog box to display the Change Location dialog box. In this dialog box, enter a new location for your FrontPage web and specify whether a secure connection is required.
