How do I find the actual .aspx files that I've created so I can use FTP to back them up?  Evidently something is wrong with my install so I need to back up my data before uninstalling and installing again, but I can't find the pages that I created.  For example, I created a page called "MassMail".  When I view it on the web, I can see the URL:  http://libertyisonline.com/portal/Mas....  But when I use FTP, I can open the portal folder, but can not see the MassMail.aspx.

Please help because there is another website that I need to get LIVE but can't do it until I resolve this issue.

There is no such file. The url you see viewed on the web is created dynamically by DNN. All the information you put in about that page (it's name, what modules it has, where they are, what skin it uses...) are all stored in the database. When a browser asks for it it's all created dynamically and served up to the browser AS IF there was such a file.
