Cannot add a file to Frontpage

[DawnP]

When trying to add a file to Frontpage I am getting this error message:

ERROR: The requested URL could not be retrieved
ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved
While trying to retrieve the URL:
The following error was encountered:

Hi DawnP, I am not too sure of the error that you get but I can suggest that you create a URL that link to the file that you would like to put in FP. Sorry if this is not a lot of help but that is what I usually do with big files....

When do you get this error? Is this something you get when you try to import a file into your FP web? Or an error you get trying to upload a file via a web browser and file upload form?

I get the error when trying to copy a file from my hard drive into a FrontPage Explorer folder.

Are you able to publish the file instead of copying it? Or import the file from FP with the remote site open in FP?

I'm sorry. I'm not understanding what you want me to do. Can you give me step by step instructions? As you can see, I'm a novice.

No problem. What version of FP are you using? And, does your web host provider have the FrontPage server extensions installed on the server? If so, do you know what version?

It says FrontPage Explorer version 3.0.2.926.. I have my own webserver here. How do I check that extensions thing?
