Hi,
        Here are the directions for saving Netscape bookmarks and/or copying
them to another machine.  There are two methods.  One working within the
Netscape software.  One working outside the software.

Copying from harddrive to haddrive:

        The bookmark file is called -  bookmark.html
It is in the Netscape directory.  In Macintosh it can be found in the
System folder/Preferences folder/Netscape f folder.
        That file can be dragged onto a diskette and copied
and then dragged from the diskette into the desired machine in the
Netscape directory or Netscape f folder in Preferences. In windows it's
about as easy. Be sure to copy the file and don't move it. You will
figure it out once you find the file.
Note:  This method will replace (overwrite) the existing file as they both
havethe same name.

Importing/exporting within Netscape: (This works best if you want to save
the existing bookmark set.)

        1. Open Netscape.
        2. Open Bookmarks (either from window pull-down menu or command-B)
        3. Select the desired bookmarks with mouse or select all.
        4. Open file menu and select save bookmark file.
        5. Save to harddrive or diskette.
        6. -- On second machine open Netscape and Bookmarks.
        7. -- Open file menu and select import bookmark file.   This will
keep BOTH sets of bookmarks if that is desired.

Thanks to everyone who responded.  I tried it today and it worked!
