Thanks for your notice TierNolan, its appreciated

i did not fulfilled exaclty  the steps that you wrote but what i did was to move the btc amount to another address in armony and then import the private key to ABC

even if the key is compromised this particular address will be empty of btc

thank you again
Right, but TierNolan is saying that if one private key is exposed all private keys and addresses in that wallet can be found, not just that one - it only requires one private key and the data from a watch only wallet... both of which I imagine have been on an online machine. It needs to be a new/fresh Armory wallet, not just a new address in the same wallet.
This is important if you don't want to risk your coins.
