[QUOTE="gameboy, post: 128501, member: 177511"] May not help but here's how to do it on a Mac but the directories may be similar... Quit AOL on both computers. If you are on a network, mount the old computer's hard drive. Go to System Folder -> Preferences -> America Online -> Data and copy the file Address Book onto your desktop. Rename the file [screen_name]'s Contacts (replace [screen_name] with your screen name, obviously) and drop it in the folder /Users -> Shared -> America Online. Launch AOL and you are all set. This should also work with the Filing Cabinet file. [/QUOTE]
