 * Do you know for certain whether your hosting package actually supports php & 
   MySQL? If it does there should be a control panel to create a new db.
 * Frontpage will not be able to create a MySQL database for you.

 * FrontPage is not a very good program. I’d suggest almost anything over it, especially
   in a case like this where it won’t work. If you need to FTP, download something
   like [FileZilla](http://filezilla-project.org/)
 * Also, I’m not sure what you are trying to do here. My guess is that you want 
   your same blog from wordpress.com to appear on your website, in which case you
   need to install wordpress into a folder called “blog” (without the quotes). Once
   it was installed, you would need to use the “Export” feature in your wordpress.
   com blog to get all of your posts, then use the “Import” feature on your new 
   blog to put those posts in place.
 * Your URL would then be [http://www.directsound.com/blog](http://www.directsound.com/blog)(
   no .htm at the end)
 * Provided your host is properly configured for php and mysql, they may have an
   automatic installer for WordPress for you, otherwise, follow the instructions
   for installation here: [http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress](http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress)

 * While I agree, FileZilla is a better (pure) FTP program, FrontPage is a pretty
   darn good program (even though it’s no longer being developed) and it can serve
   as a good FTP program even on a server without FrontPage extensions. I keep a
   copy on my computers and use it for all kinds of things from basic html editing
   to searching entire directories (WP directories, for example) to strip out code
   inserted by hackers.
 * My suggestion…if you have a copy and you are familiar with it’s use, don’t throw
   it away…it can come in very handy at times.

 * Thanks for all your help FP Is working for me and prity good for the last 9 years
   or so I have a copy of Web expresions and Shair Point but I Just havent wraped
   my head around CSS yet … I am on an apachiee server and it dosent have FP extions
   but I am getting by because its free for me I did a trade out with my web provider
   for some DJ work and I get wireless high speed and the host 3 of my domains I
   guess Ill have to check with them if they can install some kind of controll panel
   like I have seen on some other sites…. Thanks again for the input If you can 
   think of anything else please let me know
