Since my Address Book was imported incorrectly from Outlook Express, I'd like
to export what they have as an address book to a CSV file, fix it up in Excel
and then import it back to Windows Mail. I'd like to know how to delete the
address book so I can re-import it.

There is no "address book". WinMail uses a folder named Contacts to store
individual files for each person and group.

The easiest way to delete them is to open WinMail, click on Contacts,
highlight all entries with Control-A, and hitting the delete key.

Dear Dave....It does not work....no matter how you do it, it will restart
your windows explorer and shut down the contacts folder....

If you get no other solutions, there is always the solution of
upgrading to Windows Live Mail:
