It is not necessary for you to re-enter all your information from Hallmark Card Studio 2006 into Hallmark Card Studio 2008. You can simply copy the files that hold this information from Hallmark Card Studio 2006 into Hallmark Card Studio 2008. Here is how you can do that:
- Double-click on your My Computer icon, or go to the Start menu and select My Computer from there.
- Double-click on the C:\ drive
- Double-click on the Documents and Settings folder.
- Double-click on the All Users folder.
- Double-click on the Application Data folder.
Note: If the Application Data folder does not display, go to the Tools menu and select the Folder Options. Click on the View tab. Select the "Show hidden files and folders" option and then click OK. You should now see the Application Data folder. - Double-click the Creative Home folder.
- Double-click the Hallmark Card Studio 2006 folder.
- Double-click the Planner folder.
- Select both of the PLANR32 files.
- Go to the Edit menu.

- Double-click on your My Computer icon, or go to the Start menu and select My Computer from there.
- Double-click on the C:\ drive
- Double-click on the Documents and Settings folder.
- Double-click on the <USERNAME> folder.
Note: You will replace the <USERNAME> with either your login name or possibly "Owner". Each computer varies on how it was configured. So, you may have something else that needs to be inserted for the <USERNAME>. If you are prompted to over-write the existing files in the second folder, select the OK or Yes button to copy them over. - Double-click on the Application Data folder.
- Double-click on the Hallmark folder
- Double-click on the Planner folder.
- Go to the Edit menu and select the Paste option.
When you receive a prompt to overwrite the existing files, click on the Yes or OK button.
Once those files are copied to the correct location, the information in your Hallmark Card Studio 2006 Event Planner will now be in the Hallmark Card Studio 2008 Event Planner.
