Use the Packages feature to export and to import a Windows SharePoint Services Web site

You can use the Packages feature to move a Web site as empty content.

To use the Packages feature to move a Windows SharePoint Services Web site from one server to another, follow these steps:

1. Start FrontPage 2003, click File, and then click Open site.
2. In the “Look In” list, locate your source Web site, and then click Open.
3. Click Tools, click Packages, and then click Export.
4. In the “Files in Web site” list, click the Web site folder, and then click Add.
5. Click OK.
6. In the Save in box, click the folder where you want to save your Web package, click Open, and then click Save.

9. In the “Look In” list, open the folder where you saved your Web package, click the Web package file, and then click Open.
