Default Backing Up or Exporting Groups in OE

Ö÷Ìâ: Backing Up or Exporting Groups in OE
ÈÕÆÚ: 2009Äê3ÔÂ13ÈÕ 4:46

In my Main Indentities Contacts I have several groups. The
names and email addresses in these groups are not in my main identity
contact list, as I manually added them directly into the desinated group. I
want "backup" or export these groups as a safety against losing all this
data. What is the best way to accomplish this so the groups stay in tact?
Any and all help is appreciated. Thanks in advance, Fran

Create a "standalone" WAB file:
http://www.insideoe.com/files/wab.htm

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.
