Default Export Outlook Address Book?

Hello all. Using XP Pro, I would like to transfer my address book to another
XP Pro computer. Under Win98, I used to just copy over the WAB file, but I
cannot find any in XP. How do I copy over the address book?
Thank you!

In WindowsXP, the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as
hidden. To view these files in Explorer, you must enable Show Hidden Files
and Folders under StartControl PanelFolder OptionsView.
