Hi Ron and Jack,
I have a website at Geocities with several pages.  The uploaded files are
all kept in one place. The filenames from the different folders are dropped
there, so I don't think Jack's method will work.  I do have the pages in
different folders as you describe, on my c drive.

I made a webpage of the descendants of one ancestor and uploaded it. Then I
made another one of a different ancestor. That's when I found the problem
with the name index and source file.

I did rename the index file and the d1 file--one I left htm and the other I
made html.  Then I had to go through the whole webpage code and find all the
links and add the l. Ugh.

I removed the links to the source file and names index on the second page,
because I re-uploaded the files for the first data. So I can only have the
index and sources for one of the Legacy pages because of the over-riding. 

You said "If you wish to keep them separate then it is necessary to give
each folder a different file name." Do you mean inside the file? Like the d1
and index and source files renamed after Legacy made them? I would have to
change the d1 file name to add a third page, as well as renaming the other
files. How can I rename them before I upload them?  And then I have to go
through the code and change all the link info, right?  Like I had to when I
made the one d1 file html?

Because when I upload the files, the file names are not shown in the place
they are kept when uploaded to Geocities.  They are just "names.htm", 
names1.htm" etc, and "d1.htm" and "d1.html", and "index.htm", "index.htm", 
indexh.html".

When I used The Master Genealogist to make my Garland page, I had the choice
of naming the files whatever I wanted, so each new page I made from my
different ancestors from my main file could be a different name instead of
all "d1" like in Legacy. And the indexes and source files also are kept
together in their own file, not each separate like "names1.htm" up to 
names18,htm" and just dumped into the main file for uploads.  Is there any
way to put the names into a file together before uploading??

Maybe I need to use a different program to make the webpages? Maybe if I can
find enough programs that make webpages, I can get a couple from each and
end up getting most of the pages I want to make uploaded in a useable state.
It is frustrating to hit a deadend like this. I really don't want to have to
go through the code for every page and change all those links.  Doing it the
one time was quite enough.
