 * Hi!
    First, I’m still running WP2.0, never did the upgrades … can I go right 
   up to 2.3, or do I have to upgrade to 2.1, then 2.2? I HAVE those versions if
   I need to do it that way, just never “did” them… and here is my PROBLEM:
 * WHen I’m in my FTP client, if I go to my files where I’ve GOT 2.1 and 2.2, all
   is ok…. but when I open where I’ve got 2.3, just downloaded today, everything
   wants to open,open,open constantly! HELP!
 * TIA,
    Npreen

 * [edit]
 * Well you should be able to upgrade to 2.0.3 directly from 2.0.
 * Please review your procedures here:

 * Could you elaborate on what is happening in your FTP program?
 * Just as a reminder: before you upgrade, make sure you backup your database and
   files!

 * Yes, I can TRY to elaborate. I downloaded 2.3, unzipped it, all is fine. But 
   when I am in my FTP client, when I open ^that^ file, all of a sudden, everything
   IN there wants to open, either in notepad or another program! They won’t click
   OFF, I can minimize them all to a group, and close the entire group, but then
   it just starts opening them again.
    VERY strange! I’ve used ACE FTP for aeons…..
   and this doesn’t happen if I open 2.1 or 2.2… isn’t that wierd? TIA in advance
   for ^that^ problem, and thank you for the heads-up on upgrading… and YES, backingup
   is essential 😀 Noreen

 * You could try another FTP progam, perhaps? It’s not a wordpress error, it’s something
   either on your computer or ACE FTP.
 * SmartFTP is a program I use, you could try that, google for it and you should
   be able to get the link.

 * Thanks, I tried with smart FTP and with FileZilla, both are working fine! 😀
   
   then, went and checked and Ace had an update, which solved the glitch. Thanks
   for your help, I truly appreciate it! Noreen
