According to your post the address book is being exported as a text file but imported as a WAB file. Tell you what I'll try and come up with something tomorrow morning some time.

I am very confused. The process I use is to go to the identity with the address book and click on export. Then select address book. Then select the text file option. Then type in the edit field,"address book". Then click on next until the "finish"command. After all of that, I go back to the "main" identity and go to file and click on import. When it asks for the file name, I type in Address book. The next tab says WAB file Then I tab and the next thing says "open". I click on that and nothing happens. I must be missing a couple of steps. Can I just Copy and paste the address book somehow? Thanks again.
