Yes, they do. The categories attached to the records I transfered came along
with the export / import operation.
Allow me to clarify a bit. I am trying to determine how to transfer the
list (table) of categories that appear when I am in a Account or Business
contact record and click on the Catagory button. The built-in categories
transfer (because they are built-in). The ones I have added DO NOT transfer.
I have added a Bunch of new catagories and I really don't want to retype
them in because if I type them slightly differently (I may have a space or a
dash between words, etc) when I sort by catagory I will get separate
groupings. I'm trying to avoid that.
How do I transfer the Catagory table that includes the entries I made?
