Using the Copy Project feature in Visual Studio 2003 to upload to my ISP, I
keep getting an error that says:

"Unable to add <filepath> to the project. An error occured accessing your
FrontPage web files. Authors - if authoring against a web server, please
contact the webmaster for this server's site. WebMasters - please see the
server's system log for more details."

Server log has nothing. My local events viewer says "DCOM was unable to
communicate with the computer www.myhealthychild.org using any of the
configured protocols."

The only protocols listed in Component Services is "Connection-oriented
TCP/IP".

I have to use Copy Project 10-15 times, each time with an error until it
finally stops giving an error.

Someone suggested re-installing Visual Studio. Some after doing that I still
get the same errors.

I never could understand why VS requires ALL files to be uploaded when a
change was made to only one. Fortunately, I don't have thousands of files as
Visual Studio certainly does not scale.

Copy Project was always a major pain, now made worst with these constant
errors.
