You can use the File Management button if your document resides in a Dreamweaver site folder and if the site has access to a remote server. Fireworks recognizes your folder as a site if you have used the Manage Site dialog box in Dreamweaver to define the target folder, or a folder that contains the target folder, as the local root folder for a site.

The File Management button displays the following menu commands:

NOTE

File Management commands are enabled in Fireworks only if your document resides in a Dreamweaver site folder with a remote server defined. Fireworks File Management commands can be used only for files that reside in sites that use the Local/Network and FTP transport methods. Files in sites that use sFTP or third-party transport methods such as SourceSafe, WebDAV, and RDS cannot be transported to and from the remote server from within Fireworks.
