Start here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?PR=vid

There are several Visual Interdev groups where this question would have
gotten more focussed attention: microsoft.public.vi.*

HTH,

Unfortunately, those newsgroups seem to be only filled with spam.
Thanks though.

Can you browse to it in IE?
Has the FrontPage Server Extensions been removed / re-installed?
Have you checked the security settings of the web application / web site?
What do you see in the IIS logs?

Check those out and then come back with the info.

Chris.

Hi Chris,

Yes, I can browse to it in IE.

I tried reinstalling the FP extensions, but that didn't seem to help.
The security settings are fine. Remember that I can access it using
different PCs, just not mine (using the same login information).

Would I see an attempt to open a project via VID in the IIS logs?

Thanks so much for your efforts!

You'll see any attempt to receive / request files within IIS in the logs.

I'll come back with more later - got a deadline up in about 1 hour so typing
furiously <grin>
