When I set up XP the first time, I thought it would be
nice to create two separate user accounts for myself, one
for my personal stuff, and one for a second source of
income I have. As time has gone on, I've realized I can
handle all the aspects of both in one user profile. Is
there an easy way to combine the two profiles into one
prior to deleting one? If not, what all do I need to copy
over from where to where to make the transition from
these two separate user ids to one user id? (If it makes
any difference, I currently have 3 user accounts and want
to combine 2 of them leaving the 3rd intact.)
Thanks!
