Address Book Corrupted

[Guest]

I can't open my address book & receive msg it is corrupted. I have copy of it
from another computer saved in Documents. How do I move that copy into the
corrupted file? (I can locate the folder it's in). Thanks, CR

Copy/Paste it.

If XP - the address book is probably in
"C:\Documents and Settings\?you?\Application Data\Microsoft\Address
Book\?you?.wab"

In that folder you will find your corrupt address book - .wab and a
backup copy - .wa~

If you delete the wab file and rename the file extension of the wa~
file to wab, that may work.

Otherwise delete the wab file and copy your own backup wab file to the
above folder.

If you can't find it in the above folder, open My Computer and search
for file "*.wab" (without the quotes)
