Co-managed projects can be the most powerful way to develop a web site, but there are definitely some points to bear in mind.

1. Do not use FrontPage and Visual Studio .NET at the same time on a project. Use them one at a time as described later on.
2. When you use the Visual Studio .NET Copy Project command to publish the project, make sure you use either the “Copy only files needed to run this application” or “Copy all project files” option. If you use the “Copy all files in the project folder” option, you may improperly publish some of the FrontPage files.

In brief, it is usually best to follow these suggestions:

• Make changes to the navigation structure in FrontPage.
• Make any changes to the Site Settings Parameters (used by Substitution) in FrontPage.
• Make any changes to filenames in FrontPage.

This subject is covered in detail in the Using PagePorter with FrontPage topic.
