Merging Settings in VS2005

[CJ]

I've been using VS2005 for a while, and thought that some features
were just missing from the IDE (like 'rebuild solution'). Then I
found that if you choose to reset settings and select 'General
Development Settings', you get all these features back!

The problem is that I've customised my IDE quite a bit, and I don't
feel like setting all that up again from scratch! So can you either:
1) Merge two sets of settings,
or 2) Enable all these menu options without using the 'general
devlepment settings' set? Surely this group of settings just sets
values that you can set manually as well? (I just can't find where!)

Ah, I kinda found it. You can manually choose these menu options on
the 'customize' form, but there's an easier way. If you export your
settings, then reset to 'general dev settings', then import your
settings again, you get the new toolbars and your old settings.
