How to copy local Opera passwords to OperaPortable?

I have Opera installed on my local machine and would like to use the passwords for my portable version on USB.
I've copied all files in my profile directory and the bookmarks etc are working, except the passwords.

I've tried to copy wand.dat file. But the portable Opera version does not show any passwords, Can anyone help me with this?

Solved!

The enable password manager was checked, so I unchecked and checked it again, this created a wand.dat file,
which I replaced with my local file. And this worked!

Hey,

I have a related problem. Everytime I try to login with my original opera wand, the portable version shows only the username. I've saved a new pass to the wand and that one works fine in contrast to the old ones.

So I copied the wand back into original opera and it can read the old ones but not the newly saved one from the portable version.

Then I had the idea to delete the master wand password in original opera. Now it also works with the portable version, but when I set there again a master password (it's the same password I already used before) it can no longer read them. Any ideas? Thanks =)
