OE Address book data

I'm now slowly finding any usable data from my old system and moving it over to my new in which I have done clean install of XP pro and have old drive in as a secondary harddrive. Does anyone know where I might find the actual data of my old address book from outlook express??

C:\Documents and Settings\username\application data\microsoft\address book

It'll be the *.wab file.

Application Data is a hidden folder...
In "My Computer" --> Tools -> Folder Options -> View tab -> Advanced Settings box, make sure "Show Hidden and files and folders" is selected. Then you should see the Application Data folder.
