Thanks for the reply here as well as the one to me about "multi-posting" I did the multi-post after I did not receive any answer here.

As to the risk of the laptop being lost or stolen I am aware of the potential risk. However what I want to do is not have to carry around with me a page full of passwords to enter when using the laptop. I want to be able to enter them once and then monitor the security of the laptop. Since I am going to use the "remember password" function in any event I'm just trying to see if there is a way to export the "file" and then import it to the laptop. That will save me a lot of time "synching" the two PCs.

I have two computers, one I use at home, the other a laptop I use on
the road.  Is there someway I can export a copy of the "saved
passwords file" from the home computer to import it on my laptop.





Because a laptop is far more likely to be lost or stolen, it might not be a great idea to have password information accessible on the laptop.


Donald,

Check out this program Password Depot 2

http://www.password-depot.com/overview.htm

Its free for up to twenty password. All passwords are encrypted and
can be carried on a thumb drive if you so desire. I use it at work
and at home. The auto complete function is really nice. Master password
to access the program is not stored. So if your laptop is stolen the
thief wouldn't have access to your passwords.

any form from this company.
