The Bookmark Manager in FF is VERY different than the one in Net. But
its not hard. Click on Bookmarks, Manage Bookmarks. Find where you
want to go on the left, then move them on the right.
Otherwise, just copy the file bookmarks.html from your Net 7.2 profile
and put it in your FF profile.
To find your profile for Net, you can read this:
http://ilias.ca/netscape/profilefaq/#locations
To find your profile for FF, you can read this:
http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/edit#profile
but, if you're using windows, then you must read this:
