transferring notebooks to new computer

[bj]

If I'm moving from one computer to another (not "sharing", actually moving)
can I just copy the "notebook files" from the OneNote folder (XP-Mydocs,
Office2007) to somewhere (where?) on the new computer (Win 7, Office2010)?

Do I have to worry about notebook names?

I don't have any notebooks set up in the new computer, just whatever
comes-with automatically (appears to be "guides").

Can I start any new notebooks on new pc & not have trouble when I want to
import the others?
Thank you.

I just did that, moved xp 07 notebooks to a new win 7 machine
when i went to open in 2010 onnote it asked if i wanted to convert to
a 2010 onenote format
that will be up to you
it works no issues

Thanks.
I'm gradually getting the hang of how ON syncs things "behind the scenes" &
will have a much easier time of it after I'm sure I've got my old notebooks
retrieved from Backup (old computer crashed) & the new versions have both
the old & new info merged in. Then I can convert it all to 2010 version.
