Are the websites two separate sites on your computer? Suggestion - download and install Filezilla http://sourceforge.net/projects/filezilla/ It is free and will not mess up WS_FTP in any way. I have them both installed on my computer. Then set Filezilla up with the sites you ftp to. If you have questions let me know. I pretty much use Filezilla now when I am using a 3rd party ftp program. pat ---------- Pat Geary, Microsoft MVP - FrontPage We discuss FrontPage and Expression Web http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~gearyfamily/frontpage/ http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~gearyfamily/expression-web/ Genealogy Web Design Tips and Tutorials http://www.genealogy-web-creations.com/ http://www.blog.family-genealogy-online.com/
