Okay.  I'm in deep doo doo, I think.

I deleted those items from the address book I inherited in my "new"
copy of The Bat!

However, what you're saying is...if the Personal Address Book box is
checked, my Personal Address Book will be backed up?

Yes, that's about what I want it to look like.  Unfortunately, I
deleted them (Trusted Root CA, etc.)from the address book.  Hopefully
they're not needed, eh?

:(

Now I'm going to have a drink of bourbon. Maybe a couple of drinks.

Geez, every time I try to tidy things up a bit, I end up deleting
the wrong things.
