Hi Mort, before you copy your "old" and wanted "abook.mab" into your current Profile-Folder, you have to close SeaMonkey completely, be sure you have disabled Quick-Start too before. Using the Windows-Task-Manager, you can look if there is a "seamonkey.exe" Process still running. If this happen, you can kill the Process using the Task-Manager. And if you won't replace your new Addressbook, you can rename the old one (or the new one) into "abook-1.mab" before copy the File into your SeaMonkey Profile-Folder.
