Can someone tell me how to easily import my OS9 playlists from iTunes, into my OSX iTunes?

Thanks,

I'm not sure about importing, but this hint (http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20010723011209477) explains how to use the playlists from OS 9 in OS X, and vice versa ... is this what you were asking?

Odd, as that's exactly what I do -- I have the Library location pointing to the same spot in both OS 9 and OS X...

i'm not sure i'm doing it right. i've got about 80 playlists in OS9 iTunes that i want in my OSX iTunes. when i go to the "Advanced" tab in preferences and set the "Music Folder Location" to point to the same spot in both iTunes X and iTunes 9, i don't get anything in X, not in the library, no playlists, nothing. the only thing i can think of doing is going under "File > Add to Library" selecting my music folder and then re-creating all the playlists from the library. ugh.
