Rick already noted that you may need to find the original media for the
older version. There may be a way around this that you can try - if you
can't find the old media. Copy the directory that contains the program from
your old computer to the new one. Also, go into the registry using REGEDIT
and export the registry keys associated with Front Page. Then import those
keys on your new computer. If done properly, that should be enough for the
upgrade install program to recognize a prior installation.

Another way, that may be easier, is to use the software migration utility
that Microsoft provides for moving programs and settings from an old
computer to the new one. Unfortunately, I have not had good luck using it,
so you would need to get some input from others if you need help with that
method.

One more option is to use some utility such as Norton Ghost for moving the
program files. I have not done this in the way you want it, so again, you
might get help from others who may have done this.

I recently purchased a new computer and I'm in the process of loading all my
software on it.  I have Front Page 2002 on my old computer and I want to
move it to my new computer.  When I put the disk in to install it, it said
that it could not detect a previous version of FrontPage and shut down the
install.  That makes sense since there was not previous version of FrontPage
on the new computer.

Is it possible to somehow install FontPage on my new computer?  I'm looking
at the box that I got when I upgraded my previous FrontPage version on the
old computer to FrontPage 2002.  It says that it is an Upgrade edition.
Will I have to, somehow, find the previous edition and install it on the new
computer before I can upgrade it to the current
2002 edition?
