Your address book MUST have a wab extension....so wab.exe doesn't make sense to me....wab.wab is probably the one that is truly the backup
Don't know how the heck you ended up with a wab.exe file....did you rename it in Windows? Did you include the .wab extension when you renamed it the first time? .wab is the EXTENSION name, not the FILE name You really are "happy" with Windows 98? You enjoy blue screens of death and rebooting several times a day to regain system resources? Not me, Harold...I definitely prefer Windows XP, where I haven't seen a blue screen in over a year and haven't had to reboot my computer even ONE time unless something like Norton tells me I have to. (I often go two or three months without even turning this machine off....it just keeps going and going and going). Run Win XP on the right machine as a clean install and there generally aren't any problems at all, so Alvin's prediction would not hold true.

It was Alvin Toffler who first predicted these futurist problems some years ago in his book, Future Shock. Anyway, here's my question: When initially backing up the Address Book (wab), I named the backup file "Wab" ... then upon again backing it up, it (not I) created a second file called "Wab.wab", so that now I have two backups: Wab.exe, and Wab.wab. So which one is the backup? ... Harold ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
