I need to transfer certain items like "Outlook Exp" or "My Documents" etc.
from a Win98 PC to a WINXP Pro. PC. And I want the various files from Win98
end up in the same place in WinXP computer. So all items in Outlook Exp.
should end up in Outlook Exp. in WinXP. How do I do this.

Thanks

Go to files and settings transfer Wizard in ( Xp Pro ), transfers from old to
new, the Wizard walks you through it., In XP -- start, programs,
accesserary's, sys.tools, files and settings.... Goodl Luck!! Don't
forget to back- up !!
