    Hi there, Has this been addressed as yet? I have a client who is simply
    updating a pdf document on his site. He does this, by going to the page,
    highlighting the text for the document, and going through the motions of
    finding the file on his computer. He is also making sure to keep the same file
    name, as this file is linked on the site from two places on the navigation
    (their request, not my suggestion). I know this worked correctly in the
    beginning as I already had this file out there and working, and used Contribute
    to update the file when I was creating their Contribute User Guide. He called
    me this morning and told me that the new file was only available from the link
    he highlighted. When I checked, the link he highlighted and changed had _000
    on the end of the file name, just before the extension. Please let me know
    what I can do to help you solve this issue. The only other solution is to give
    the client an FTP program, and one of the entire points of using Contribute is
    to provide an easy way for the client to maintain the site while keeping the
    files safe. FTP will have to give him access to everything. Thanks, Suzanne

    Hi All

    Two different issues here (but maybe linked). CT has always (unfortunately)
    added _000, _001 and so on to new versions od documents such as PDF, XLS, DOC
    etc, which is apparently a version control thing .

    But for CT to do the same to an htm page is not intended.
