So I received my copy of Panther, backed up my home directory and other files, and did a nice clean install.

I'm in the process of reimporting licenses and everything else, but it looks like Address Book now stores its information in another format (and in another place) from Jaguar.

Anybody know how I can get my old address book info back (using the backup files of my old Jaguar home folder?)

thanks!!
