Transferring bookmarks from old computer to new computer, both with Windows XP Pro?

Thanks for your h4elp.

Also, can I create a file of bookmarks in MS Word or Open Office so that I can save them?

You can export your bookmarks to an HTML file on your old computer, and them import that file on your new computer. The HTML file also is your backup, and if you open it into Word, you could save it as a DOC file if you prefer.

For more information, check out these articles:

Note that if you are using the orange Firefox button (abbreviated menus), you can access the class menu bar with the full Bookmarks menu by tapping the Alt key or pressing F10.
