Hi,
I wonder if it’s possible to develop a simple way of opening a group (folder) of saved Favorite web pages all at the same time on individual tabs (obviously) in Internet Explorer 8?

While I accept IE8 is not most sophisticated surfers browser of choice these days, there are reasons I still prefer it.   However, one of it's (no doubt numerous) failings it that there doesn't seem to be a quick and easy way to re-open multiple saved Favorites.

As you know, Firefox has the ability to open a number of saved bookmarks at the same time -- if they are grouped together (in a folder) -- by simply selecting the "Open all in Tabs" from the Bookmarks menu.  And while Internet Explorer will also willingly let you save all open tabs into a group (folder) -- by selecting “Add current Tabs to Favorites…” – it doesn't seem to have the ability to then re-open them all together in the same way Firefox can.  Any solution?

Whoops!
Silly me, I've just found the very thing I was asking about! 
It's contained in the right-click menu.  I never realized that before.  I feel such a fool!  :-[
