Bill pointed me to this and it worked great. I thought a bunch of
stuff did not come over but I was looking at the wrong user. When I
went to the one with my full name as registered with the program
almost everything was there. Strangely the AOL Shield (a subset of
Firefox) didn't make the trip and I need to reload my virus scanner. I
haven't had time to check it all yet, I am still futzing with the
"skin" on this thing but so far so good. It was list at $59 for the
"pro" version and I might not have needed all of that but it did let
me put both drives in my original machine and port the stuff over.
This began life as a W/7 machine and I put another drive in it to run
XP so I just had to put the original back to be OK on that part.
If you have a bunch of stuff in your XP machine that you want to keep
when you move to 7, this is the trick.
Thanks again Bill.

Glad to be of assistance. It's just about the only software that can do it,
to the best of my knowledge (well there was one other one from Easeus that
seemed less attractive). And I think the prioe is worth it, although it's
being permanently tied to a specific PC seemed a bit restrictive, but I
guess that is how they are able to support it and still stay in business.
