Tips
1.    Hold the Option key as you double click the Address Book application Icon to prevent auto loading of the default list file and bring up the Open File Dialog. Also works when opening the DA.
2.    Use Command-G followed by a letter to get you to the first record of names that start with that letter. Continue typing the name to find the specific record.
3.    Instead of closing Address Book and reopening each time you want to use it, just set it aside by pressing ΓÇ£hΓÇ¥ or click on the first letter of the list name in the title bar.  Any keystroke, or another click on the first letter in the window title, will return Address Book to its previous position.
4.    When entering new records or editing, the tab key is usually used to move through the fields. In the name field and first two phone number fields, the return key tabs to the next field. Shift-tab backs up through the fields.
5.    To browse through records in certain categories, press Command-B, select the categories, and click OK. In the Index or View windows, hold the Option key as you scroll though the records to see only those in the selected categories. Hold the control key to see those not in the selected categories.
6.    You can cancel a quit while the list is being saved by pressing Command-period.
7.    To copy a record from one list to another, select the record and press Command-C to copy it to the clipboard. Open the list to copy to and press Command-V. This operation does not copy category settings.
8.    To open two list files simultaneously, use the DA to open one and the application to open the other.
9.    Once records are marked, you can save the marked or unmarked records to a separate list file using ΓÇ£Save Copy ToΓÇ¥.
