I have now found and understand how to get to the page shown in the
screen print, however, when I right-click on Personal Address Book, the
box that opens gives the following choices - Propertied, New Card, and
New List.
I am looking for ,'proceed to point 3', where is it? You see what I see
in the screen print.
Please don't get too frustrated with my stupidity, I have to live with it.
Thanks for your continued patience,
Steven
