I did the move some years ago and found the following:
1. Bloody complete restore of MP120 data to a MP2000 worked but caused some
surprising effects: The same odd behaviour of the HWR of the MP120 was moved
to the MP2k.
2. The approach of Robert is the way to go. HWR settings and user dict are
not transferred but the data is in correct working condition.
3. Folder tabs are stored and transferred with each element (name
card/note/date, etc.). After you've created a new tab on the destination
Newton with exactly the same name the items are filed automagically. I keep
therefore a note where I list all used tab names (copied and pasted) and
thus included in the b/u.
