SYMPTOMS
When you use a FrontPage 2002 file upload form to upload a file to a web based on SharePoint Team Services from Microsoft, the file is uploaded into the root web.

By default, the root web is created in the following location:

C:\InetPub\wwwroot



CAUSE
This behavior can occur if you do not specify a destination parameter when you create the file upload form.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, specify the destination parameter for your File Upload form. To create a sample page, follow these steps:  Start FrontPage 2002, and then open the SharePoint team Web site. Add a new folder in the root folder to store uploaded files, for example, FileUploads . Follow these steps to create a new file upload form:  On the File menu, point to New, and then click Page or Web. Point to Form on the Insert menu, and then click File Upload. </li> Right-click the form, and then click Form Properties.</li> Click Options, and then click the File Upload tab.</li> For the destination, click Browse, and then locate the destination folder for your uploaded files. For example, you could use the FileUploads folder from earlier.</li> Click OK twice.</li> Save the page to your web.</li></ol>
