I have a directory at c:\att on my winxp computer that contains a few
hunder pdf's. How would I create a webpage that would have links to
each of these files without me having to enter the code manually for
each one. I plan on uploading these files to my website.

Thanks,
Chris
 
You need to import the PDFs into a folder within your web first, then create a new page or open the
page you want to have the links to each PDF on, then have the PDF folder content displayed in Folder
list View, then select the PDFs and drag them on to your page, and FP will create a link to each.

I imported them but is there a way to select all of them and paste them
into the page. I started dragging each over indivdually and its taking
a long time. I'm using frontpage 2000 but would upgrade to 2003 if it
allowed this.

Thanks,

Open your site w/ the PDFs in them
Open a page in Design View and then
Select the First PDF (from the folder they are all in) in Folder List,
Then while holding your Shift Key select the Last PDF
Drag the group of selected files onto your page

Frontpage 2000 doesn't allow me to select more than one file at a time.
I guess its time to upgrade to 2003.
