Where is the data file for the Address Book? I am double clicking file
"Johansen.wab" in directory "D:\Documents and Settings\Johansen\Application
Data\Microsoft\Address Book", where D: is the Windows directory. But I find
nothing there.

You appear to be using the right address book as mine is in a similar
place (C:\Documents and Settings\Alan Edwards\Application
Data\Microsoft\Address Book\Alan Edwards.wab).
If it appears blank, ensure you have View-Folders and Groups checked
and then use "Main Identity's Contacts"

For further help, try an OE group.

Problem has been solved. I was looking at the "Shared Contacts" category in
one and the "Main Identity Contact" in the other. Sorry!
