xps documents in Front page 2003

Greetings all,

Hopefully someone can assist. I am attempting to hyperlink "xps" documents
in my frontpage 2003 website instead of using pdf. Having issues in adobe
8.0 while linking to excel 2007 files. It only shows the first page even
though entire workbook is selected to print and or save. While Frontpage
2003 "xps" saved excel documents work on my computer, when posted to my
website the link does not function. The link is intact when i verify through
a FTP program and looking in the file structure. Mircosoft "xps" does show
all the sheets in a workbook when published hence its advantage. Any thoughts?

"Doesn't work" - does that mean a 404 not found error? or what?

If it's a 404 error and you're hosted on a Windows server, then add a mime
type for the .xps files.

Yes on the 404 error, i will contact my provider to add the extension. I
thought perhaps that their was an compability issue between FP2003 and .xps
file format. Thanks I appreciate the help, hopefully that solves it.
