Open the curves adjustment panel either as a curve or layer adjustment hit the load button and navigate to the file on your hard drive and select it and hit Ok and the adjustments will be made to your image or selection.

RichPate Aug 3, 2010 3:32 PM (in response to Wade_Zimmerman)Thanks Wade.
That did the trick, once I figured out the missing step. For other folks interested, to use an .acv file to adjust a curve:
Open the Curves Adjustment Panel > Panel Options drop-down menu > Load Curves Preset... > find & select the .acv file (on hard drive) in the "LOAD" window > click LOAD. The adjustment in the .acv file will be applied to the image and appear in the curves graph of the Curves Adjustment Panel. Slick.
Apparently, moving the .acv file to the "Curves" folder in the "Presets" folder allows this curve adjustment to be a permanent preset choice. It can then be found under the Curves Panel preset drop-down menu. Just look for the original .acv file's name in the list.
