  if “longhornbritt” is a WordPress site, you would Tools/Export from wedohouston; this would create an xml file; you would then Tools/Import that file into longhornbritt

  cheers!

  @bobbol
  I think that this blogger may mean he or she wants to use this process > http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/#transferring-your-blog-to-another-user-or-account

  @jumakinyode
  If I guessed correctly you make another username account an Admin of the blog first and then use the process to transfer the blog to that username account.

  Hi again,
  I could be wrong but that’s the way I read the OP.
