Hm. I used the Import function in the AB window, and it worked this way for importing the default addressbook. What do you mean by the location of the addressbook to be used? The problem has been solved by backing up and restoring the second AB, but I didn't need to do that for the default AB. I sense at least some inconsistency here. -- Cheers, Thomas.

Copying addressbook from non-OTFE to OTFE
Hello TBUDL, My setup is now that I have TB Pro both in the office and at home. However, I don't want my private mails on the office computer, so I use Voyager in the office, which checks my private accounts. (Voyager rulez! I take it with me on trips now. Very convenient.) I don't use OTFE on the computers, but obviously Voyager does. I now want to copy my private ABs from the home computer to Voyager. A simple file copy won't work, due to the different formats.
