=====================

Since the preferences are saved in several files and in the
 registry, you should use the Office 2000 "Save My
 Settings" Wizard.

To get the Wizard you can download here:

To install the Office Profile Wizard:

Using your Web browser, go to the following address:

http://www.microsoft.com/office/ork/2000/download/orktools.exe


Save the Orktools.exe program to your Desktop.

Install Orktools.exe by double-clicking it and following
 the on-screen instructions.

On the Start menu, point to Programs , point to Microsoft
 Office Tools , point to Microsoft Office 2000 Resource Kit
 Tools , and click Profile Wizard .

To read about what it saves, go to:
