I copied my address book so I can use it on my other pc. My address book
worked on my other pc however my group list did not copy. Can someone tell
me how I can also copy my group list also.

The way I copied my address book is: File/Export/Address Book/Text file
csv/Export

To import to another pc: File/Import/Other address book/text file csv etc

You need to open the address book in Administrator mode. Click Start/Run and
type:
WAB /A
Then click View/Folders and Groups and ensure that all contacts in your various
Folders and Groups are also in your Shared Contacts folder. Use the Address
Book menu, File/Export/Other Address Book and save the CSV file. You should
then be able to import from the CSV file but again, all contacts will be in
Shared Contacts only and you will have to recreate the Groups and Folders you
desire in the new address book.
