Using PABTool Address Book as Source Format

Using the PABTool format is a unique case for importing. You should use this format when you have a list of e-mail addresses or other contact information in a text file or database or other format that is not directly supported by PABTool. You should use an editor, spreadsheet, or similar program to work your addresses into the PABTool format. The best way to go about this is to export an arbitrary address book into the PABTool format just to get a PABTool file to use as a template for your addresses. Open the "dummy" PABTool file and strip all of the addresses from it but leave the column headers in the file. Use the column headers to indicate where you should put your address and contact information. Once you are comfortable with your PABTool file, save it with the headers, and you are ready to pull it into PABTool. If the file extension is "TXT", it will be easier to locate the file from PABTool. You may wish to export to the Windows Desktop, or move your export file to the Desktop for easier handling from PABTool. Once the file is generated, you may run PABTool using this file as the Source Format.
