Had to figure this out today, so here it is in case it helps someone else.
As usual, take care when messing with the registry. Backup before you start and close all running programs.

Open regedit : Start->run->regedit->OK

Find this part of the tree:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MySQL-Front\Servers\

Right click servers and choose Export. Make sure it says "selected branch" and choose a file name you'll recognise. Save it somewhere you can find it.

Open Notepad: Start->run->notepad->OK

In notepad open the xxx.reg file you just saved.

Use find/replace to substitute "HeidiSQL" for the word "MySQL-Front" (no quotes).

Save and close

Double-click the xxx.reg file. Accept the warning and open Heidi. All your connections should be there.
