AAH,
The wa~ files are backups or rather copies of the address book prior to when
it was last changed however although the dates for your addrbook.wab and
addrbook.wa~ are less than a day apart the older backup file is
substantially smaller, less than 10% of the current copy which seems
somewhat odd unless you spent a considerable amount of time on 28 April
adding items to your address book.
I'm also somewhat intrigued that your default wab is so much older than its
back-up default.wa~.
Personally I wouldn't bother deleting the wa~ files as you will most likely
find they return when you next make a change to your address book.

Do the files with ext .WA~ have any value or could
be deleted.
Advice appreciated?
