1. In my .pub file I have several .doc and PDA files (which live in various
sub folder on my computer) linked. When I first take my .pub file and
"Publish it to the Web", I assume these document/PDF files will be pulled and
stored in a folder on the web along with the index file?
2. I am assuming the answer to #1 is yes. If so, when I later want to
update a .doc file (assuming I checked the "enable incremental publish to the
web option") I can just replace said .doc file in the sub-folder that is
created as described in #1?
3. My .pub file (and later my published HTML file) will have several pages.
Lets say I want to change the wording on one page (after it is published to
the web), how do I do this?

since you speak of the incremental upload it's a safe guess this post is
about version 2003. publishing is only relevant to publishers files. it has
no relevance to external files. See link in 1st answer.

You open the pub file and open the page you want modified, change it, and
republish. Read left side column on
