Do you have a version of the site on your PC (as a disc based web at say C:\...\yourwebname)
If so open it in FP using File Open Site and browsing to the folder named: yourwebname
(FP will call it local because it is the currently open site)
To publish it to your server based online site (remote) see
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;825528&Product=fp2003
If not, open your online site using File Open Site and entering the online URL as
http://www.yoursitename.com/
(FP will call it local because it is the currently open site)
Then Publish the Online site to your remote PC based site (on your hard disc)

| Because yesterday when I asked this group for help because FrontPage 2003
| would not let me work on the web but insisted that I work in a remote
| location, I was sent the following message. Doing what is suggested below
| allowed me to alter pages that had already been created, but does not allow
| me to create new pages. I am now downloading the entire site (a process that
| will take many hours at this rate) so I can edit from a remote (on my
| computer location). I would still like an answer to the problem however.
|
| Thanks.
|
| [in FP, File Menu | Open Site and enter the URL as
|
http://www.yourdomainname.com
| This will open as your local.
|
| In FP2003, "local" is whatever site/location you open first, and "remote" is
| whatever site/location you will be publishing the "local" copy to.]
