Upgrading from 1st Contact

Calendar+ 2000 should be installed in it's own directory and NOT into a directory 1st Contact is already installed in. Once you have it installed:

Step 1 - Decide where you wish to keep the contact data and create a directory. If there is only one user, choose the default path shown. If this on a network, read the network instructions.

Step 2 - Go to Options|Import Contacts and set the contact data path to the directory you created in Step 1 above. If there are no contact files in the chosen location, Calendar+ 2000 will create an empty data set. If you are setting an existing contact data path, Calendar+ 2000 will only verify the file structure and if need be, upgrade the files to the v3.00.0 format.

How to import contacts from 1st Contact.

Once you have set the contact data path, you can import contact data from an existing 1st Contact v2.00.0.1 or later installation. Click on Import 1st Contact Data 
and choose the directory your contact files are currently in. When you click on OK your exiting contacts will be upgraded and moved to the Contact Data Path set in Step 2 above, leaving your existing 1st Contact databases unchanged.
