Jerry, thanks for the lead. I scanned the 14-page list of scripts for Entourage, but only found one that seemed it might do what I need. I downloaded it, but the four and a half page Read Me instructions totally overwhelmed my ability to comprehend, and scared me off.
Also it did not mention the exact task I'm trying to accomplish. It dealt with sharing an Address Book between users on different computers, and between different Identities within the same user account, but no mention of sharing between two separate user accounts on the same computer.
