Address Book

I was hoping that Mac's Address Book program would be a little beefier than it is, but...I will make do.

I am trying to keep the columns from automatically shrinking when I am viewing it...but they keep shrinking down. It would also be nice if it kept the birthdates format in the manner I enter it (e.g., 3 October, instead of October 3).

Are there any good websites that have tips and tweaks for Address Book?

One more thing...I am trying to import a text file with addresses...I've set up all the fields correctly, but when I hit the OK button on the Text File Import window, it doesn't do anything.

Bump.

No insight into the Address Book program?
