Problem
Opening Address Book v2 thru v5 Data into Ultimate Mail Manager (the Address Book portion of The Print Shop)
Solution
Parson’s Address Book v2 thru v5 data can be opened and restored in the Ultimate Mail Manager.
Note: Parson's Address Book v6 & v7 files cannot be opened in the Ultimate Mail Manager. Attempts to do so will result in an error message which says this:
"Unable to convert Address Book 3.0 file."
However, Address Book v6 & v7 files can be exported in a Comma Delimited text format, then imported into the Ultimate Mail Manager. Please click on the link below
