how to transfer Messenger Plus! custom names to new computer? by hooing on 09-02-2007 at 08:36 AM

1st Question: I have been using Messenger Plus! 3.36.148 for quite a while. Moving to a new computer, I would like to take all my Plus! custom names with me. But I cannot find any information where Messenger Plus! stores this information. I have tried changing information, and then locating a changed file ... without success?

2nd question: can this transfer also be done when moving to MSN 8 and Messenger Plus! LIVE ?

Thanks hooing

If you export your settings for Messenger Plus!, it should save the custom names as well.

Not unless you use pen and paper

Thanks MattyRid!

Any chance you could tell me how to EXPORT THE SETTINGS FOR Messenger Plus!, as no such function appears in the menu? Thanks a lot, as I have spent already three hours in figuring out something that simple. Can't believe how badly some essential functions are implemented in some programs (each program should have a "save as text" function, especially if they store user data).

Your help is greatly appreciated. Hooing
