The long answer: I doubt it.... poked a bit looking at a search on "convert from frontpage 2003 to visual studio 2007" because, well, 'upgrade" isn't really the right term. Looks like the path would be from FP 2003 to VS 2003 Web Application Project to VS 2005 Web Application Projects http://www.codeverge.net/ng.asp-net-forum.migrating_from_asp_to_asp-net/convert-frontpage-to-vs-2005-web-project - no help http://www.anthonymain.com/archive/2007/04/11/Visual-Studio-2003-on-Vista.aspx - not quite the same thing, but it does mention where people have fallen down along the path. If you hit the Wayback Machine, you can read some useful comments on the whole thing, that have since been removed. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/frontpage/FX100743231033.aspx http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/features/2006/feb06/02-15Designer.mspx - when did MS officially toss FP in the recycle bin, and what did they say about it? :) http://www.seoconsultants.com/frontpage/history/ - information and pointers to the mass of stalwarts still using FP. Good luck!
