Is there a way to connect WLW to my Joomla site and transfer my WLW articles to Joomla automatically instead of copying and pasting?

  SOLUTION

  I got the following answer from a friend. Posting it here just in case someone else finds it useful:

  "You need to download the MovableType API interface from:

   
          http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/3831/details
   
      On the download page, it's also indicated that if you are using PHP 5.3 (instead of 5.2) that you should overwrite the file  Joomla/libraries/phpxmlrpc with a newer version, also available from the same download page.
   
      When you have to choose the procotol from WLW, you must choose "MovableType API"; with the API at the end and not just only "MovableType"
   
      Personally, I'm using the older version of this plugin with Joomla 1.5 and PHP 5.2; never had any problem.  More instruction on the following page:
   
      http://www.dionysopoulos.me/blog/using-windows-live-writer-to-edit-joomla-content
   
   
      I will try to do some test this week with Joomla 1.6 to see if it works properly on Joomla 1.6."
