BOL (2005) Favorites

Not sure if this is the right place to ask this but here goes anyway, and
I'm sure if it's the wrong place, someone will soon tell me.
I have a whole bunch of items in my favorite list in BOL (SQL 2005) and
would like to export that, or move, or copy, to another computer. How can I
do that?
TIA

The Help Favorites are stored in C:\Documents and
Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL
Server\90\Tools\Shell\VS Help Data\Favorites.xml. This file can be copied to
the equivalent location on another machine. This will overwrite Help
Favorites on the second machine. It is possible to combine Help Favorites by
opening both files and copying the source from one file to another in a
logical way that follows the XML schema.
Help Favorites for Business Intelligence Development Studio and Visual
Studio are stored in C:\Documents and Settings\usernameApplication
Data\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0\VS Help Data\Favorites.xml. The same logic
applies for this file.
