Many thanks. J.T. Hello, Use Windows Easy Transfer. Using the advanced settings, only save your settings and the files inside of your user profile. You need to pretend that your old account is the old computer and your new account is the new computer. -- -JB Microsoft MVP - Windows Shell/User Windows Vista Support FAQ - http://www.jimmah.com/vista/ |
