Hi - If you don't delete the TJP registry section on the destination 
computer before importing, the tab headings will be mixed up. If you do 
delete it, the tab headings will be blank. But it can be fixed, here is an 
earlier discussion of the problem and the solution. Hope it helps.

Sure, glad to. I just figured that if changing the registry changed the 
labels, then the labels must be defined somewhere in the registry. So on the 
*source* computer, in RegEdit, I chose a label name and searched for 
"Interpretation". I found it and could see where it was originally defined. 
All other labels were also defined in the same section, panes 1 thru 10. 
Then I went to the same registry section on the destination computer and 
used Edit > Mofify to define them the same way.

But of course it is never that simple, so here is the "tricky" part... 
When you find the original definition, it will look like this

InterpretationXInterpretation

where I am using "X" in place of what looks like a square box in RegEdit. I 
could not figure out what character or keystroke the box represented, but by 
looking in RegEdit's binary editor I could see that it's binary code was "0A 
00". So I typed in the name as shown above using X as a placeholder and then 
opened the binary editor and changed the binary code for the X to "0A 00". 
When I OK'd out of the binary editor, the X turned into a box character just 
like the original. Seems like to worked fine - good luck!

  Do you care to summarize how you fixed the labels? It might come in handy 
in the future

  Hi Joseph, just thought I would follow up...I followed the steps I wrote 
below and it worked well, the 2nd computer now has the same customized UI as 
the 1st computer. I only noticed 1 problem - you mentioned that your tabs on 
the left had the titles mixed up - in my case they were all blank, possibly 
because I deleted these sections before importing the new ones. I don't know 
why these titles didn't export/import properly but I was able to figure out 
how to type in the correct titles for all the tabs, so if I can help you at 
all in that regard just let me know. Thanks again for your instructions!

    Hello Joseph and TJ,



    OK, have had a chance now to open RegEdit and poke around a little. 
Haven't changed anything yet but what if I did this?....



    On source computer, export entire TJP section of both keys and copy the 
2 files over to the destination computer.



    Then on destination computer, backup registry and then delete entire TJP 
section of both keys and import the files from the source computer. Think 
this would work well?  Thanks for any advice!



    Steve
