Somehow I've lost the Address Book for the FAX function in XP. Using the
FAX now comes up with an empty address book!!
I've read things that say it's a .wab file but I find no such thing and it
is *not* my large OE address book either.

Where is it kept and what is it called, etc?

Thanks,

fred

Control Panel --> Internet Options --> Programs

What's shown as your "Contact List" program?

If "Address Book", that is :
Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, and then click Address
Book.

If something else - post that here. Might try changing to a different
one...

If it is empty - something bad happened - restore from your backups. No
backups - you have learned a valuable lesson and should start making
periodic and consistent backups. ;-)

Thank you! That did it.
It didn't change the Address Books or Contacts in either OE or Outlook.
The ones I was wanting to find were under "Shared Contacts" in the .wab.
I'm not sure that I'd been able to do a backup restore because I didn't know
where to look!
Guess it was in the .wab as a separate list all the time.
