Saving Web Pages Links IE 8

Post by RonH »

Is there an easy way to save multiple web links instead of one-by-one :scratch:
For various reasons, I will make a file of web favorite links (eg holiday links) which eventually I want to get off my favorites. I save these links in say Word for possible later use and delete the favorites file in IE. I seem to have to use File/Properties/copy link and then paste this link into the Word doc, gradually building up my wanted list.
Any ideas please :sad:

I may have mis-understood but if you have Word open you can drag links onto Word on the taskbar, pause a moment, and continue to drag the link into a Word document.

You can export your IE favorites to an HTML document on your C drive, open the document in IE, then select, copy, and paste the relevant links into a Word document. (At least, in theory that should work. I haven't actually tested it.)

If you are asking to save a list of Favorites/Bookmarks as a text or HTML file there are a number of free apps :

Favorites View - http://www.nirsoft.net/web_browser_tools.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
"displays the list of all your Favorties/bookmarks in a single page. "

ExportFavs (to Html page) - http://www.guilleminot.org/myfreeware/windows.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
- http://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/B ... Favs.shtml" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Fav2HTML - http://paraschopra.com/software/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Favorites 2 HTML - http://www.burrotech.com/favs.php" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Thanks for your inputs. I will take a look at these options and report back in this thread if I still can't solve. :thankyou:
