I am presently using slackware and SUSE but now I plan to format my
computer and install Debian. I don't have any important data. I only
need my opera bookmarks, which I have backed up and my password wand.

Generally a hidden folder with the same name is created in your home directory. In your case check out the .opera directory in your home folder.
cd
ls -a
cd .opera

Copy this entire folder and save it somewhere else. Delete the existing .opera folder. Remove Opera and install it again. Paste this folder in your home directory and check it out before you do the actual format. I do this with Thunderbird across different platforms. All my emails, folders, accounts and their passwords remain intact. It is as if I am already using it in the new system.

Before you remove or format your linux partition, if you have Windows, then mount one of its partitions and backup your data into that. After that you can delete or format the balance linux partitions.
