How to switch from FP 2003 to Expression

[rb]

When I switch from Front Page 2003 to Expressions (probably after purchasing
a new computer; I now have WinXP), will I have any problems moving all my
html webfiles and images from FP into the new software? Not sure how this
will work or what I need to do. I don't want to have to re-create my entire
website (hundreds of pages) from scratch.

There's a lot of information on the Expression site about migrating from
FrontPage to Expression Web - start here:

Expression Web 2 has got an Import Wizard (File, Import Site Wizard) which
should import everything for you automatically.

Why not download a trial version from MS website and see whether you like it or
not. The link is here:

You could also try the Express Edition of Microsoft Web Developer (free to use
for as long as you want!!)

Hope this helps.

No, just open the FP web with EW, don't import it.
