    thanks, i have just had a play round and opened the html file and then just cut and pasted most of the template into publisher. not too elegant, but got the result. will look at coding as well,

    thanks again,

    jamie

    Just remember when using programs like Macromedia Dreamweaver and Microsoft FrontPage they fall into the dwt catagory and have many support files attached to them in order to work within the program. This can make it very confusing if you do not really know the underlining program structure. They are designed to allow you to make a web without knowing code, which means added overhead. If you use publisher to upload all the files, your server should support frontpage extensions and you my have to turn them on.
