Have you tried importing the MS W doc and associated files into FP
(so the relative paths are correct in the final .mht)
And then right clicking the .doc to open it w/ MS W to save as a .mht
- you may need to turn off FP interfering w/ MS W in Tools Options General (Startup)

| I'm an author on a keyboarding and word processing textbook that teaches
| students to use Word for many applications, one of which is creataing and
| saving Web pages. The textbook uses a sophisticated software program that
| uploads student files for grading, etc., to a commercial server and
| unfortunately the software cannot manager any file that has any supporting
| files or folders--for both of these reasons, I have to use Word for Web page
| creation and I must use Words *.mht format rather than *.htm due to the need
| to have one encapsulated file when I'm finsihed rather than the original
| file and supporting files or folders for graphics, etc.
|
| In essence, I'm stuck with these issues and will have to come to some
| resolution. I also teach FrontPage and so am familiar with both packages. I
| think I"m just going to have to warn students that once they publish their
| files over to any given location on a server, they're going to have to
| manually edit their links to point to the server directories rather than
| their local hard drive and directories. Maybe someone will come up with an
| answer, but for now, that seems to be the only way out. In checking the Word
| newsgroup, I see many questions posted on similar issues related to these
| absolute hyperlink problems.
