Applying image settings BETWEEEN sessions ...

I'm trying to keep my P45 sessions only 50 images large - because I want to keep them archived to DVDs including thumbs and all .

The problem now is applying image settings between sessions .
Is there some way I can do it ?

I'm aware that I could save custom color balance setting and reload it
between sessions ,

What I want is reapplying of other settings ( at will ) as well .

Specially crop settings are PIA to apply exactly the same way ....
IMHO - some copy/paste method should be obvious for this ...
