HIT: transfering bookmarks

[John Henne <library@sau20.ncia.net>]

I haven't tried this yet (new computer hasn't arrived yet), but here are
a few of the clearest instructions I received.  Sorry I haven't credited
the sender, but I hadn't planned on posting  a hit when I first saved
these.



You can save your bookmarks to a disk and then
transfer them to your new computer.  Open up
Bookmarks, right click on those you wish to save,
choose the "send to" option and choose 3 1/2 disk.
This is the procedure for Microsoft Explorer, I think
it's the same for Netscape.  Priscilla

*********************************

No clue on the address book.  If you don't find a better answer try this

for the bookmarks.

Go to Bookmarks>>>>Edit Bookmarks
Go to File>>>>>Save As

Save your bookmark file to disk.  It saves in html format.  Insert that
disk into your new computer or email the file to yourself.

Go to File>>>>>Import

************************************************
Go to edit bookmarks, save them to a disk, then go to
edit bookmarks on your new computer, use import to put
them permanently on your new computer, or open to just
do it temporarily. Enjoy.

*************************************************
Use Windows Explorer to locate the "Netscape" folder, probably in your
"Program Files" on your C: drive. Open the Netscape folder, open the
Users
folder, then you should see a folder with "yourname" in there, or
"default"
if you never named it. In that folder is a cute little file called
"Bookmark.htm". Just drag it into the A: drive and copy it on a floppy.
Put
the floppy into your new computer and drag the "bookmark.htm" file back
into
the "default" or "yourname" folder under "users" in Netscape. Just did
this
myself a few days ago. Good luck.


Thanks, everyone, for the help
