SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to open a file directly from an FTP location, the following error message appears:

The Server Extensions do not support this action on FTP servers.



CAUSE
Although you can rename and delete files from the Open dialog box (on the File menu, click Open), you cannot open a file or web that is in an FTP location.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.



MORE INFORMATION
If you want to edit a file at an FTP location, first save the file to a local computer or to a location such as a Web server using the HTTP protocol, and then download the file. Then you can open the file in FrontPage and make the necessary changes.
