Website HTML / FTP - HELP !

I have a largeish website I built using Frontpage.

This site has taken years of work in my spare time - it's for the Owners Association for the class of sailing yacht I have, and has contributions from members etc,etc, PLUS SOME VERY IMPORTANT SAFETY / DESIGN ISSUES.

My hosts have been taken over by a new outfit, and since then I cannot access or amend the site in any way.

The new hosts affirm this is because Frontpage uses HTML, while they use FTP.

They say they can access the site controls, but the username & password they tell me has no effect from my end, I reckon I've tried every permutation.

They are no more help than that, suggesting I somehow convert it to FTP - though I have been told elsewhere that the hosts should deal with the format.

Also I cannot believe I am the only Frontpage user this large outfit have come across.

Is there a way around this, PLEASE !!! - or am I going to have to invest in a new publishing program and re-do years of work not to mention learning how to drive the new software ?

Any advice very much appreciated !
