Frontpage 2003 How do I change the "Author" Name?

Computer Name\Registered Username under "Author" column in local folder
contents during "Publish this site" is different

then the "Folders View" where there is a "Modified By" column with current
Computer Name\Registered Username.

Can anyone tell me how to update the information of Author's Name to be the
same as current "Modified By" name ?

In other words, I want to update the Author's Name on all the file's
properties to reflect current Ownership as Authorship.

I am the original owner/author, just changed PCs a few times over the years
but kept updating the same old site.



Thanks.
 
The name there reflects your currently logged in User ID
Log in to your online site in FP and Publish All to your PC
- should make all the files modified by your logged in User ID
(of course when you edit locally they will change to your then PC logged in ID)

Thank you Stefan,
I've done that and it did change modified by name, however Author's Name
remains unchanged.
Perhaps I need to delete all my files and create them from scratch or
rebuild the site from the ground up.
