Copying The Address Book

Our thanks to Dave Oberhart for these instructions.
You may copy and save your Windows Address Book by following these instructions.

Depending on the system, the address book is located in a variety of places.

First, set your folder options to show all files, including system and hidden files.
Next, use the Windows F to open the find dialog box, then search for files and folders.
On the file name line, type the asterisk, a period, and then WAB for windows address book.
When the results are shown, you can copy and paste that file into a temp folder, or onto a floppy disk for storage.
On your Windows system, open your address book, and import by opening the address book and choosing import from the file menu and follow the prompts.
Point the import to the file you copied from the steps above.
It may take a few minutes, so be patient.
