In J-4.11... While playing with merging address books from different userxxxx files.. using notepad or other text editor... I was able to cut-n-paste the ENTRY sections together (disregarded the LISTs), saved back as ADDRBOOK.NV, & relaunch Juno... It complained about some duplicate ALIASs, and suggested changes, but otherwise accepted the combined lists, resorted it all, and went on it's merry way with the "new" book... Appears that the .NV file is kept in memory while Juno runs, and re-saved in whichever state it was last sorted... by name, addy, or alias when exited. The "new" .NV got overwritten by the old in that circumstance. Naturally, make sure you have good copies of your originals before starting to play...;-) R.
