114449 2003-01-16 21:32:00 I am getting a new PC. I need to copy my address book from Netscape 4.7 but I can't find the file. I can find adbook.hab but that does not seem to be it. I have found my bookmarks. If I choose to switch to MS Outlook -can I copy my address book over (if I can find it, that is!).
Thanks in advance,
Tim

114450 2003-01-16 22:02:00 netscape address book should have an exporting function. Get it to export it as an outlook file, or as a comma seperate file (csv)
I think outlook can even import netscape address books anyway

If you can't find your bookmarks, try this:

1. Modify any bookmark.
2. Quit your browser.
3. Search your computer for "Files Modified Today"

When the list appears, click on the "Modified" heading to sort by date, then look at the latest ones. One of them will be the little beastie you're after.

Hint - if you're extra lazy (like me) do the search just after midnight.

That's a good method for locating datafiles created by just about any program.

Cheers,
