Default OE 6 address inport

This is meant for Exporting / Importing Groups from one Address Book to
another. Perhaps you can adapt it to work for your saved file.

Create a "standalone" WAB file:

Then open your default address book to the group desired and select all
member of the group and copy them to the clipboard (Ctrl+A selects all,
Ctrl+C copies them to the clipboard). Then open your "standalone" WAB file
and paste the contacts into that file (you will have to hit the Enter key to
OK each entry but it beats typing) and then either copy that wab file to a
floppy disc or export it as CSV file. Otherwise, folders and groups neither
import, nor export.

I mistakenly posted to the wrong newsgroup. I hope I got it right this
time.

I want to import approximately 100 email addresses from a previously saved
file to a new group in my current address book. How do I proceed? I
certainly don't want to manually add these addresses to the new group

Any suggestions appreciated.
