Thanks for the help guys. I'm sorry for wasting your time, but I'm going
to
find another script that hopefully works out of the box instead of trying
to
fix old stuff. It's definitely been a learning experience, so it hasn't
all
been a waste of time (on my part).

Why not write your own?

I really don't know anything about PHP except what I picked up over the past
2 weekends during free time. I'm beginning to think I should get a PHP for
dummies book.

I found another address book script that pretty much worked out of the box.
A couple error messages that were fixed with your suggestions for the
previous address book (I guess there are a lot of outdated scripts out
there). There's only one error message that I have no idea what to do about
(I even googled it before coming back to you guys).

PHP Notice: Uninitialized string offset: 0 in
E:\Inetpub\wwwroot\experiment\addressbook\edit.php on line 163
(code posted below)

Any ideas?

Thanks. Robert
