It just comes up with "the import could not be completed"
Reason for doing this is I reformated my pc.
I wonder if I can use some other program just to retrieve my text(address).
The file is still a wab file & about 250kbytes.
?????????????????

Try dragging the . wab file to Windows Explorer, go into Properties of that file and remove the read only tick .

Now try importing it back (or dragging it back) .
