precious version in an address book program it's an address book file. Any
suggestions?

What type of address file and from which application?

What is the extension of the file?

Generally you should be able to export from that application as a *.CSV file or
similar and import to Excel.

If from Outlook or Outlook Express it should be easily exported to Excel.

When I tried to look at the file extention all it tells me is "address book
file" I tried to find an extention but no luck. I belive that it used to be
an outlook address book, its open and operational, just not attached to
outlook. I dont know if that makes sense.

The three-letter extension is what we're after.

Do any of your files show extensions or do you have those hidden in My
ComputerToolsFolder OptionsViewFiles and Folder section?

If you want to send it to me, I'll have a look.

Change the AT and DOT for my email.
