| | Import favorites Is there a newsgroup for IE7? I tried to import my old favorites (from IE7 beta in XP) and it wants to import "bookmark" files -- ie., each favorite, individually, one by one -- rather than favorites as a group. Is there something I am missing? |

| | Re: Import favorites Hi Edison, The default name of an exported favorites file is bookmark.htm, so when you try to import favorites, this is the file it looks for. If you exported favorites on another machine using a different file name, simply use the browse option and grab the file you exported, regardless of name. If you are just getting favorites from another user account on the same system, you don't need to import them. Just copy them into your user profile's favorites folder. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org "Edison" <edison.stewart@sympatico.ca> wrote in message news:2B69A09B-6E2F-4193-931A-B9B22F00C953@microsoft.com... > Is there a newsgroup for IE7?
