Computer help needed from the computer gurus in the lounge.
Is there a way for me to copy/paste my favorites into a document that I could edit?

Here's the situation. I have bookmarks related to my profession that I want to share with a co-worker who is currently in Hungary. Trouble is, a lot of my databases are fee based and he wouldn't have access to those.

Rather than tediously going through all 200+ of them, I was thinking maybe there would be a way to copy/paste the folders in my favorites into word and edit out the ones that are fee based.

TIA.

1. I would copy the contents of your "Favorites" folder into a new folder
(search for "Favorites" on your hard drive to find the actual folder where the links are stored)
Then delete the links you don't want to send.
Finally, use WinZip to make the folder into a zip file and send it.
Your co-worker can then unzip it and copy/paste the contents into his/her Favorites folder.
