Can some one please tell me how to point to something other than t,l,r,b...
these pages end in .htm I need the pages to end in .asp

I have tried to just rename, but no success.

Any thoughts,
Rlittle
 
I'm a little confused on what you're trying to do.

You can't use shared border w/ .asp pages as the border pages
Use either FP Include pages or server side includes

Shared borders are *always* .htm files, but you can place asp script
in them - the script will not run and will download if you access the
files directly.
When you save a page in FrontPage, any shared borders are embedded in
the page when it is saved, so the actual content of the shared border
file does not matter, as long as *all* the code is between <body> and
</body> tags, and the page is complete within itself - no missing HTML
tags, or HTML closing tags.

If you do not want the shared borders, then use SSL includes. These
pages can have any extension and are included when the page is served.
An SSL include can be called with the code
<!-- #include virtual=/path/filename.asp --> (which is a root
relative path)
placed where the code should appear in the page.
Note that an SSL file must NOT be a complete webpage. It must not
have any <html><head>meta tags</head><body> tags, nor </body></html>
tags.
 
Dangerous approach
A server side script in a .htm page is viewable in browser view source
- so anyone can open the shared border .htm page (their location is known) and see any code unprocessed by the ASP engine
