348111 2005-04-24 01:34:00 Have you tried searching your hard drive for it using the Search function? Not sure what OS you use, but make sure you have selected to search hidden files/folders first. Jen (38)

XP by the way.
I have now Jen,when I click on WAB to open all that happens is a box with OK in it?

348113 2005-04-24 01:51:00 That doesn't sound good. What happens if you double click on it? As Jen said, do a search for *.wab and see what is in them.

It's a perfect day today to be thinking about implementing a backup system. ;)

Bit late for backup now I am afraid :)
Looked at hidden files Wab and o/e but no sign of address's .
I can feel a panic attack coming on .
