Default importing contact list from one PC to another

Hi Paul,

You can try moving a copy of the Windows Address Book (WAB -- *.wab) to the
other computer, and then importing the addresses (from this file) into the
new book. The path to the file is under the Help menu, About the Address
Book. In some cases it is necessary to export the list (without groups or
folders) to a comma-separated values (CSV -- *.csv) text file from the OE
File menu. This CSV file would then be used when importing the address book
entries to the Main Contacts folder.
