Access sites, a server, and local drives
You can access, modify, and save files and folders in your Dreamweaver sites, as well as files and folders that are not part
of a Dreamweaver site. In addition to Dreamweaver sites, you can access a server, a local drive, or your desktop.
Before you can access a remote server, you must set up Dreamweaver to work with that server.
Note: The best way to manage your files is to create a Dreamweaver site.
