Thank you:
In Window’s Explorer, I went to the Folder C:\Documents and Settings\Alan E.
Barrett\Favorites\Bookmarks_IE.
In which I found the “Favorites” Bookmarks ( A to Z Folders ), that I had
created in Internet Explore, & the “Bookmarks” ( A to Z Folders ), I had
“Imported” into IE from Netscape Bookmarks.
Then using the Windows Explorer “Split-File Window”, I was able to see both
sets of Bookmarks side by side, & to move individual Bookmarks around, and
put them in the Folders I wanted to.
Also, by double clicking on a particular bookmark, I was able to go right
to its Web-Site and see what it was, which enabled me to shorten or change
the “Bookmark’s File Name” more to my liking! )
