Getting the DWT into Your Web

FrontPage DWT Help > Getting the DWT into Your Web

 

If you've downloaded templates from us in the past (non-dynamic, of course), when you license one of our DWT Packages for the first time you'll notice things are a bit different!  Not to worry, we've gone through a lot of testing to ensure an easy process for you!

Start with the Download

1. Download the .exe file to your hard drive (note where you download it, as you will need to locate it to execute it).
    
2. Execute the file.  The default installation location for TWC Graphics Design DWT packages is c:\Program Files\TWC Graphics Design\ - then the name of the particular design.  If you elect to unzip the file to a different drive or directory, you will need to remember where it is and substitute that directory for all other instructions we provide.

Get the Needed Files into Your Web

We're assuming you have either an existing web, or you've already started a new web.  If not, then you'll want to first start your new web in FrontPage 2003, probably using the "One Page Web Site" template option. 

To place the files in the appropriate location to attach the DWTs, open the web you wish to attach in FrontPage 2003.  Open the Folder List (View, Folder List) if it is not already open and ensure that the top level directory is selected (left click over it to highlight it).  From the FrontPage menu, select File, Import - then click "Add Folder."  Navigate on your hard drive to c:\Program Files\TWC Graphics Design\ - then select the folder for the design.  Once imported to your web, you will be able to attach the DWT (proceed to Attaching DWTs in this tutorial).
