Thanks so much. I did go the registry export route and did get my
templates to work though the font didn't come through. The
templates at least give me font size and text and placement, I just
have to change the font each time I use one. I probably could
re-save, but haven't gotten around to it. Kinda silly having only
partial results in a save of the presets, though, eh? I mean,
you'd think it would have kept the font correct, too. But this is
still much better than when I started after the system
wipe/reinstall.

Thanks much!


Glad it worked for you. I agree that Vegas needs work in certain
aspects of it's preset savings. Maybe with Vegas 6? We'll know for
sure on Apr. 18 at NAB. I'll be there in person along with several
hundred other Vegas lovers waiting patiently!!

Hi, Mike. I was reading about Vegas 5 and it is much better at saving
presets than 4 because it _is_ just a question of saving the preset
files themselves, i.e., no need to export the registry entries like in
4 to a reg file to be merged into registry on new installation.

That sounds good. Unfortunately, it says that V 5 is for W2K and up
and I'm on Win98SE, so it'll be a while before I can upgrade.

Still, I find 4 extremely adequate for my needs even with this little
registry fiddle. g


I'd highly recommend upgrading to XP (home or pro) and doing the Vegas
upgrade. The power of scripts alone is a major reason to do this. You can
upgrade any version of Vegas to Vegas 5 for $200 right now and, if things
are the same as last year, the price was only $150 for the first month
following the new version release. The rumoured new features coming in
Vegas 6 have a lot of us drooling in anticipation:-)
