You can edit a bookmark list using a spreadsheet editor (such as Excel) as long as you bear in mind the following:
• | Do not try to edit a list whilst it is open in Bookmark Buddy (you won’t be able to re-save it). |
• | Do not modify the first line: this contains information needed to maintain the file, as follows:
BMKBUDDY/[file version indicator]/[encryption level indicator]/[last itemID used]/[list identifier]/[encryption hash] |
• | It is best to copy all but the first line of the bookmark list into a blank spreadsheet, then copy and paste back to the bookmark list, leaving the first line intact. |
• | The column headings, contained in the second line of the bookmark list file, should be self-explanatory. |
• | If you add bookmarks, allocate item IDs starting after the number shown in the file header. |
• | The order items are listed is the order they are displayed in Bookmark Buddy. |
• | If the passwords are encrypted, edit or enter these only in Bookmark Buddy. |
• | If the list file is encrypted, do not edit anything! |
You are advised as a precaution to save a copy of your bookmark list before you start editing it!
