Cannot save changes to home page; says cannot save file with same name.

I am trying to revamp the look on the home page of my web site using Front Page. I took out most of the content, then created new tables and added some text boxes with text. When I tried to save the file I got an error message: cannot save file because a document with the same name exists at this location. I don’t know why it is doing that.

Since it is my home page, index.htm, I am reluctant to rename it. I tried copying and renaming it, and that one saved. I named it index2.htm

I am afraid that if I delete the original index.htm and then rename index2.htm to index.htm that I will lose my entire web site – all my links and etc.

I am using Windows XP, and FrontPage 2003. Any help you can offer would be appreciated.
