It's FAQ #157.

Option 1:  Turn Preview Pane on for the Address Book (command+\). Find your
contact, and the preview pane will show you a summary of all the info in the
contact record. Hold the shift key down and select all of the items you want
to copy to the clipboard.

Option 2: Use the AppleScript,"Info to Clipboard" that offers a selection of
available fields from a contact; you select the ones you want. The script
does not list <all> contact fields. You can find the script here.

Option 3: Here's something that Word does better than Entourage. If you
display the Contact toolbar in Word (View/Toolbars/Contact) and enter a
contact's name there (or even just start typing a contact's name in a
document and click return when its name appears in a tool tip), then click
Include Address in the Contact Toolbar, the business address does include
the company (Entourage X only).

More info: In Word, You only get the first 100 in that list from the Contact
menu. But there's usually no need to see the list at all. Just start typing
in the contact's name and you'll get a small auto-complete list just like
you do in an Entourage email message addressee field (but it has only
contacts, no Most-Recently-used additions). If you really want to see your
list of contacts, just go to the Tools menu in Word / Office Address Book.
You get the same Address Book as in Entourage and can just select a contact
that way. At the bottom left of the Address Book is a popup for
Default/Work/Home addresses. If you pick Work (or the Default is Work) and
Insert, again you'll get the Company as part of the address.
