Screwed up user

[Harry G]

I have 4 users on a Suse 8.1 machine, primararily using KDE.  One has a lot of 
screwed up settings for printing, menus, etc., but there are a lot of items 
that would take a while to rebuild.

Can I:

1.  Create a new user

2.  Copy all needed data from the old one to the new one

3.  Delete/rename the old one's directory

4.  Rename the new one to the old name

Will this work?
