Or could you just make a text file if you already have an e-copy and just save it to a card and just add to the file in the bn. That wouldn't be using the address book, but would get your info in there. I had to do that many years ago with a different product and it wasn't fun the copying by hand, and when that last machine crashed taking everything with it, I had to start over with the bn anyway so use its book but, if I'd had a text file I might've just copied that in and just added to it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "dan kysor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]>; <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, June 23, 2005 10:13 AM Subject: Re: [Braillenote] importing to address list
