This is a start...

Find all files that have AddressBook-v22.abcddb, crawl through them and do a query like:

Look in the following tables zabcdemailaddress and zabcdrecord

pluck z_pk,zlastname, zfirstname from zabcdrecord
and merge it with zowner,zaddress from zabcdemailaddress

Take those and store them...
