Karen, the _vti folders and files are used by FP to keep track of your website and changes made. Those files are what allow you change a file name from within the program and have the links to the file adjusted or for you to move files to another folder and have those links adjusted. Because Rootsweb does not habe FrontPage Server extensions installed on their servers, it is not necessary to upload those particular files. BUT do not delete them from your hard drive. Just delete the incorrect index file and upload the current one and everything should be OK. 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/
