Glad it helped, Tom...  I fell asleep before sending a follow-up as I'd
realized by examining my own files that my info was marginal.

Looking at my own addrbook files, it appears that the index file defines
the "Sources" list. which makes sense.  The only oddity I didn't expect
when I sent the WAG, is that the addressbook.xml file is not listed in
the index file.  That file also has a blank line where the
    <address-book name="NAME"> 
line normally resides; but my addressbook.xml does contain:
    <common_address>
    <personal_address>
sections which get merged with the addrbook files...  

I now suspect addressbook.xml may be the original address file (from SC
days) because mine only contains 4 entries which would be the ones I
would have started with years ago.

Never too late to learn more...  :)
