If you are using Internet Explorer and want to backup your Favorites list: File > Import and Export... Then follow the instructions. Dan. |

Hi Sue, I've done it the really old-fashioned way - I've got a little notebook beside the pc! Showing my age I'm afraid, but it works! Mandy :) |

Export to save Sue ( I think backup would have been better). Then import to new or reformated PC. By the way you can also do the same with your messages and address book in Outlook Express. Bob |

> Choose Export Favorites and click Next. > You then need to select the folders that you wish to backup - Click Next to select them all. > Then use the browse button to select your Disk Drive and click Next. > Finally click Finish. You can open the file from disk to check it - it will open as a webpage with all your links listed. You would choose Import, to restore the list if needed. Dan. |

Sorry Dan, beat you by a second! Just an addition Sue, DO IT NOW! while your thinking about it. (I say this because I NEVER remember) Put them on a floppy and label it. Bob |
