I installed Crossover Office on my old laptop with a couple of applications and all was well. I got a new laptop, installed CO 9 on it and moved my old /home partition over (which includes the .cxoffice folder). Now, when I go to start the applications, nothing happens. Is there a documented way to do this without reinstalling everything?

It's a little hard to know what's happening, but you'll probably have better luck if you make archives of your bottles on the old machine and then restore those archives on the new one. There's some amount of installation logic that happens when a bottle is unarchived (setting up file-type associations, creating menus, etc.) which will improve your experience.
That said, I would've expected your method to work, at least a little bit. So even though archiving/unarchiving may fix your problem, it may not :(

This seems to have worked...I simply archived them from the current machine and restored them.
