Author Migrating Visual Studio.Net font/color preferences to another local user

I have Visual Studio.NET 2003 installed for all users on my local machine.
I've grown to enjoy the color/font scheme I've got picked out, which I'm
very finicky about, and I'd like to apply this to the administrative
account. Is there a file or two that I can just copy into my Documents and
Settings directory, or is the process more complicated?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Best wishes,
JJ

Problem solved! For anyone else who's interested, export the registry
settings from the HKEY_CURRENT_USER branch containing the
\VisualStudio\FontsAndColors entries. Save this in a globally accessible
location. Then, log in as the destination user and import these settings.
Restart Visual Studio.NET and your problems are solved. Rockin'.

Best wishes,
JJ
