upgrading from 3 to 4 - figured it out

is there a way to migrate my buttons and categories over?
 
the thought of having to redo ALL  those buttons from scratch is making me faint.
 
what about transferring from LM back to the desktop?  can that be done?

okay, i figured it out: first off, looks like LM4 doesn't actually "install" -- suh-WEET!
 
loads much faster with a cleaner feel to it.
 
now, about them icons (for those that don't know):
 
first, backup your icons into a launchmate LMB file.
 
copy your existing launchmate files into another folder -- call it Laundhmate 4 so it'll be right next to the existing Launchmate folder.  unzip the LM4 files into that same folder, say yes to any overwrite warnings.
 
shut off launchmate.
 
through add/remove programs, uninstall launchmate.
 
through windows explorer, double-click LNCHMATE.EXE to start it.  the bar will be blank.  
 
look in the folder: there should be another folder called "profiles".  if there isn't, right-click the toolbar, click "profiles", click "add", nothing will happen, click "ok" and get out.  now there should be the profiles folder.
 
copy the backup you made earlier into the profiles folder.
 
in the profiles folder, you should see two files, DEFAULT.LMP and DEFAULT.LMD.
 
delete DEFAULT.LMD, rename the LMB file to DEFAULT.LMD
 
restart launchmate and bob's yer uncle.
 
ps: if this didn't work for you, i can't help since i only figured that out through trial and error.
