The trouble with this is that a PDF is not exactly "text-editor 
friendly" as she requested. Has anyone tried my suggestion of Address 
Book Exporter? It puts the whole data base into a text file that 
opens in Excel with all fields properly and neatly in their own 
columns, suitable for editing, and saving out any way you like. It's 
amazing.
