transfer IE Favs to PPC

Is there a way I can send my entire list of Internet Explorer favorites (or better yet my Firefox favs) from my desktop to add to the list of my PIE favorites on my Axim?
Thanks in advance.

Have you tried copying the fav from your desktop and putting them on your axim?
Locate the favourites folder on your desktop (start-my computer-documents and setting-"select user"-favourites).
Once you have located them, copy.
Now, on your ppc, syn it with your pc. Once synced, use the explore feature in activesync and find the favourites folder located within the windows folder on your ppc and paste the favs you copied from your desktop pc there.
Theres probably another way to do this, i'm just too tired to think of it now.

You need to find the Mobile Favorites folder within the general Favorites folder Ecks talked about. That is the folder that is synced provided you have Favorites checked off in your ActiveSync options.

To get Firefox favorites onto your Axim, export them to IE then manually copy them to the Mobile Favorites folder. Then sync.

Thanks Ecks and Gigi.
To do it I found my computer IE Favorites in C:>D&S>user>Favorites, opened Favorites and Copy and Paste all the folders to the Mobile Favorite folder on the same screen, then Sync'ed the Axim. Great!
