I tried a number of times to import bookmarks / favorite lists from IE 6 to
IE 7 but failed.

The failure mode is that it only copies parts of the bookmarks not all of
each group.

Pls help!!!

Did you use IE's File | Import and Export? If not, how did you copy them?
Do you mean only some of the favorites or incomplete individual favorites?

Hi Frank,

Yes, I did use IE 6's "Import & Export" to export Favorites to a file and
then use IE 7 to import it.

The problems are that I couldn't import all groups of favorites, say 15 of
20 groups only; in addition, some sub-groups couldn't be imported too.

Any suggestion?

P.S. I tried not less than 8 times of Importing and Exporting the Favorites.
