MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / September 2007Help with Managing my web site
Few months ago. I developed a web site. with pub 2007. My laptop has since crashed and no longer have the original pub files i have tried to import the site but each time it is all over to one side and if i attempt to just simply realign everything. It saves corrupt with missing information. Any ideas suggestions would be greatly Apreciated. Thanks in Advance Pat Pat, It won't help now but for the future: Back up your Pub file to the web. With the fast Internet connects and great ftp programs, there is simply not a reason to not do this. Having it backed up to a removable media is okay, but what if a fire or something similar happens. The web site wouldn't be the first concern but it would not be trivial either. I back my files up about every other week. Mike > Few months ago.

After reading a good discussion of how to back up your files, at the end of the article is a method for rebuilding your Publisher file from the html files. Its tedious, but it will work, and of course as you go through it, you will be reminded to backup in the future. Please don't misunderstand. I am not throwing stones, as I too live in a glass house and have lost important files because I didn't get around to backing up. I would imagine almost everyone has. Files go corrupt and hard drives crash. I have found that I do keep a flash drive handy and backup files every hour or so as I work on them, and before I eventually backup to an external drive, and periodically burn DVDs. I also regularly burn images with Acronis True Image, because I really hate to do reinstalls. Sorry there isn't an easier method. DavidF > Few months ago.

And i did have good intentions. Before of doing so. My old laptop died And i was not able to retreive that info. dont put off today backing up what you will lose and need tomorrow. > Reference: Common Sense Computing 101 aka "Why in the world would you lose > your publisher file?" : [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] > > Thanks in Advance > > Pat Yeah, I know about good intentions. In fact I have been getting lazy, and after reading your post I will be backing everything up this weekend. I think a good rule of thumb might be to periodically ask yourself "how much work would it involve to recreate this file if my computer crashed right now? Could I even recreate it?" If its a couple hours, that's one thing. If it is a website file that you perhaps spent weeks on...that is another story.

I really don't post here to promote a competing product, unless a poster is looking for something that Pub simply cannot do! BTW, I don't eat the peppers or their juice (except for the Hungarian Hot Wax, which really are barely above a Bell Pepper as far as heat). But I have heard tales about what they can do.

If there goals and expectations for the web site is beyond Publisher, I am the first to suggest alternatives, and as far as I am concerned Serif Web Plus is a great alternative. You have proven that to me. <smile> I know you don't eat many of those peppers, but I still can't get over growing things in a garden that requires gloves to handle. By the way, do you throw away the gloves after the fact? I can just imagine forgetting and using those gloves another day and wiping your forehead and the sweat out of your eyes...ooooweeeee!
