Easy way to move Address Book addresses?

Client has different eMail addresses in different copies of Address Book on different computers and want to consolidate ALL the Address Book eMail addresses into one copy of Address Book on one computer.

End user computer skills are below average.

What is the easiest/simplest way for the end user to consolidate all their eMail addresses into one copy of Address Book?

Thanks

You can do File -> Export vCard with ALL contacts selected (apple-a). Export, then transfer to the master account. On the master Address book, File -> Import -> vCard, then select the vCard file.

That would be an easy way. Either bring the exported 'all' vcards using an external memory or copy over network account or email the card or whatver way he wants to transfer them - the vcard files are only a few MB even if he has hundreds of contacts in each.
