'mr/2 ICE' import / export - function

If you want to import adresses from mr/2 please make sure that the 'Path & File of mr/2 ice addressbook' is set correctly in the WhO©-Config (using ALT-F4).
Importing from mr/2, WhO© checks if the email-adresses from mr/2 are already in the WhO©-database. If the email-adress is in it, the entry will be skipped, else the entry will be imported.
Exporting to mr/2 , WhO© overwrites the mr/2-adressbook. It is very important, if there are any important entries in your mr/2-adressbook, to use the 'mr/2 import'-function first. Then you can export all the stuff together.
If there are any problems with this function, please contact me.
