Transferring Word files from one computer to another

[Guest]

I'm in the process of setting up a new XP computer and I'm wondering how I
can easily transfer my Word files from the old computer (Windows 98) to the
new computer. I'm using a flash drive to transfer between computers and am
able to transfer one file at a time, which is very time consuming. Is there
a way to transfer all Word documents and nothing else? My computer's My
Documents folder contains files other than Word but I just want to transfer
Word files.

How small is your flash drive and how large are your files?

In Windows Explorer, sort by file type, which will group all the .doc files
together so that they can be copied or dragged to the flash drive all at
once. But it would make a lot more sense to create separate folders within
My Documents for your different file types.
