In that case, the file format has changed as well. You need to open Entourage v. X and use the Import command on the file menu, and Import from Entourage 2001. The Import command, I think will locate your database for you. If not...the E2001 database is kept in the Microsoft User Data folder, inside your Documents folder. Within that MUD folder will be an Office Identities folder; within that will be a folder for your user identity (probably just Main Identity unless you have more than one), and within <that> will be your mail data in a file called, simply, Database. If, on the other hand, in switching to OS X you will continue to use Entourage 2001 in Classic mode and just want to copy your data over...just copy the MUD folder in its entirety, placing it into your OS X identity's Documents folder. That is, "YourDisk:Users:yourusername:Documents:Microsoft User Data:". -- My web page: <http://home.earthlink.net/~allenwatson/> My scripts page: <http:homepage.mac.com/allenwatson> Microsoft MVP for Mac Entourage/Word--<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
