MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / September 2004Converting/migrating Publisher 2003 to Frontpage
I am having trouble trying to convert a web design created in Publisher 2003 to FrontPage 2003. I have tried all the import and export methods. When importing from Pub to FP I only get two files to show up private and images, but they are empty. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. P.S. If anyone can figure a faster way to edit in Pub from the web without having to make all changes in Pub and then uploading the index and web page file will also be appreciated. Thanks. private and images are FP web default folders. Doesn't sound to me like you imported the html files from Publisher. Note, I recommend against converting Publisher html into FP. Publisher's method is to edit the pub file since it is not an html editor nor a web design tool both of which FP is.

Welcome to the club. M$'s lie that you can easily migrate from Publisher to FP is the main reason I hang around this forum. It is the vain hope that M$ will do the right thing and solve this problem that keeps me here. You should be aware that there is a brewing class action lawsuit some lawyers are working on to address M$'s continuing misrepresentations about using Publisher for webpages. I heard today that they have decided on who the class representative(s) will be. >private and images are FP web default folders. Doesn't sound to me like you >imported the html files from Publisher.

They must not have informed the Publisher division of the Publisher lawsuit.

Of course they have not, and will not until it is filed and M$ is served. I am not supposed to even be talking about it, but I plan to withdraw from the class, assuming the thing gets that far. These things never provide any real relief to the regular class members, except sometimes there is injunctive relief or a consent decree where the defendant must address a problem. But in direct relief, the class members typically get a coupon or a couple of bucks, or some such crap. So I will withdraw form the class to preserve my rights to pursue the matter independently if time ever permits. Your comment wreaks of sarcasm, but indicates you know little about the class action lawsuit process. >> Welcome to the club.

No sarcasm. Upon further investigation (based on your claims) , I had indeed contacted the proper contacts in the Publisher division to find out if there is such a pending case. Indeed, there was none. As for class action lawsuit process, I have a 4.0 in all of my law classes in college (and I aced our *Class Action Lawsuit* mock project. I am *very* informed.

M$ could not know about it unless they saw the original request for potential class members. One such request was in this forum, and in fact the class representative is a party that found out about the proposed litigation in this forum. Until the action is filed, of course M$ is unaware of it. There is no duty to notify a potential defendant prior to filing a civil action. In fact, it is generally unwise to do so when dealing with a very aggressive outfit like M$. When will it be filed? Heck if I know; they have been talking about it for months and months. Maybe they are waiting for the next release of Publisher to see just how much worse the next version will be for web applications. I know the attorneys lurk in here (or have somebody who checks this forum) since they have gotten on my a.s about my big mouth. >> Of course they have not, and will not until it is filed and M$ is served.
