Workspace and Toolbar files

(OP)
setting up a new workstation and was wondering where the files are typically located for my workspace environment including customized toolbars and their locations? If I don't need to go back through it again I'd rather not.

RE: Workspace and Toolbar files

If you already have a workstation set up how you like it, use the 'Copy Settings Wizard' to create a file that you can throw onto a thumb driver, or network, and then use it when setting up your new workstation. Take a look at the help files for more in depth info.

RE: Workspace and Toolbar files

If you are also upgrading to a new SW version (and even if not), take the time to go through ALL the options and reset to suit. You may be pleasantly surprised at what you find, especially if you click the associated Help icon when you find an 'new' option. It really doesn't take that long.

If you are upgrading from XP to Win7, using the Copy Settings Wizard could cause more problems than it solves, because different file locations/names have been used.
